Overview

The ABB P00551C Threading Machine (SKU: P00551C) is engineered for efficient and precise threading of PVC-coated conduit pipes, accommodating sizes from 1/2 inch to 4 inches. This industrial-grade machine is equipped with automatic die heads and dies specifically designed for PVC-coated conduit, ensuring proper thread formation without compromising the protective coating. Unlike standard die heads that may strip the PVC, this machine utilizes specialized heads that penetrate the coating and bite into the conduit, leaving slits that require touch-up with Ocal exterior patching compound. For PVC-coated conduit, specialized die heads are essential; standard die heads will not clear the additional thickness and attempting to use them will expose the steel, negating the conduit's corrosion resistance. The P00551C features a built-in pipe cutter and a reamer, streamlining the workflow by integrating essential preparation and finishing steps into a single unit. The roller cutter design removes approximately 1/4 inch of the PVC coating, with cuttings falling onto a collection screen. For enhanced operator safety, a foot-operated safety switch is included, allowing for hands-free operation during critical threading phases. This machine is a robust solution for electrical installations, construction projects, and maintenance where reliable conduit threading is paramount, backed by ABB's reputation for quality installation products. It is designed to work with PVC-coated conduit, where standard jaw inserts in stationary machines might grind off the coating. For stationary power threading machines like the Ridgid 1224 series, shell-style clamps (1/2" to 3-1/2") or jaw inserts for coated conduit (1/2" to 4") are recommended to prevent issues with standard jaw inserts. The P00551C provides a dedicated solution for this specific application.
