Atlas Model 1200 Pipe Mate Welding Positioners

The Atlas dual speed Model 1200 Pipemate easily rotates pipe and tube sizes from 1 ½” to 17” diameter weighing up to 1,200 pounds (with one end of the pipe supported on an appropriate free turning roller, such as our optional Idler Rolls).

Two 6” x 2” rubber tired wheels are driven at identical speed and are heat and abrasion resistant. Power is provided by a DC permanent magnet motor and hardened secondary gearing. Pipemate features dual speed ranges; 0-35 IPM or 0-70 IPM. Speed range is changed by removing the side cover and reversing the position of the secondary gears. The speed control dial is located on the front panel, along with a forward-off-reverse switch and easily accessible 2 amp fuse for overload protection. A broad spectrum, high frequency filter prevents erratic motor operation when TIG welding. The on-ff foot switch initiates rotation and is protected by a steel safety enclosure.

An optional, non-powered, Atlas IDLER ROLL is an ideal mate for supporting the other end of work pieces. Wheel size, wheel stance and tires are identical to those on the PIPEMATE.

A specially designed, heavy duty work stand for the PIPEMATE and IDLER ROLL is also available for welding convenience. ( $190)
