Chamfering Tool for PLB Duct
When you cut a plastic underground pipe (PLB HDPE duct) on a job site, it usually leaves a sharp, jagged, or uneven edge. If you try to join two pipes together with a coupler over a rough edge like that, the sharp plastic can slice the rubber seals inside the coupler, causing leaks. The GAMSON PLB Duct Chamfering Tool is a handy manual tool made specifically to shave a clean, angled slope (called a bevel) onto the outer rim of the pipe.
Made by Gamson India Pvt. Ltd., this tool acts like a heavy-duty pencil sharpener for industrial pipes. By shaving down the rough, square edges into a smooth 15-degree angle, it lets the pipe slide effortlessly into couplers and connectors without catching or tearing anything. This simple extra step guarantees a perfectly airtight joint that can handle high-pressure cable blowing without bursting or leaking water later.
Key Features
- Protects Coupler Seals: Shaves a smooth, precise angle on the duct edge so it slides into couplers smoothly, completely preventing damage to internal rubber O-rings.
- Durable Metal Body: Heavy-duty construction built for long-lasting use in field and workshop conditions.
- Ergonomic Grip: The textured, non-slip body gives field workers a strong, comfortable grip to twist the tool manually, even in wet, muddy trenches.
- All Sizes Available: Available for all standard telecom duct pipe sizes.
- Fast and Uniform: Shaves down a perfect edge uniformly all the way around the pipe in just two or three quick twists, saving valuable time on the field.

Applications
- Telecom Jointing Work: Preparing the rough, saw-cut ends of PLB HDPE ducts before pushing them into mechanical couplers.
- Fiber Optic Layouts: Ensuring smooth conduit connections prior to blowing fiber cables, avoiding internal snags or friction.
- Field Repair Kits: A must-have tool for maintenance crews when cutting out damaged pipe sections and splicing in clean replacement ducts.
- Pre-Installation Prep: Fast on-site conditioning of pipe ends right after trench cutting to keep the layout process moving efficiently.
