Product Details

Product Overview
Multi-Purpose Roll Groover
This roll groover is a professional grooving machine designed for high pressure, high mobility, and one-person operation. It is suitable for stainless steel pipe, steel pipe, copper pipe, and PVC pipe, and is widely used in fire protection piping, industrial pipelines, and equipment installation. With a compact body design, it can generate up to 15 tons of powerful pressure with easy transmission, delivering fast, stable, and consistent groove forming.
Product Type
High-pressure multi-purpose roll groover
Maximum Pressure
15 tons
Applicable Materials
Stainless steel pipe, steel pipe, copper pipe, PVC pipe
Operation
One person can complete setup and operation
Application Sites
Jobsites, factory assembly, fire protection piping, industrial pipelines, equipment installation
Structure
Grooving rolls and drive shafts can be changed quickly for higher efficiency and flexibility
The Real Value Is Not Just High Pressure — It Is One-Person Operation, Consistent Grooves, and Fast Changeover

Grooving productivity on jobsites and in factories depends on setup speed, material coverage, groove consistency, and manpower requirements. With 15 tons of pressure, a compact body, and quick-change grooving rolls and drive shafts, this roll groover reduces labor burden while improving efficiency when switching between pipe materials and sizes.

Selection Logic: Confirm Material, Pipe Size, and Wall Thickness Before Choosing Rolls and Drive Shafts

Even for the same 6" pipe size, different materials and schedule ratings affect groove forming conditions. Before use, confirm the pipe material, diameter, wall thickness, and coupling specification, then match the correct grooving roll and drive shaft to avoid inconsistent groove geometry, poor sealing, or excessive machine load.
