Summary
The RG-2X roll grooving machine is designed for 2"–12" steel pipes, focusing on stable operation and practical usability. With support for SCH40 pipes up to 10 mm thickness and a fully sealed hydraulic system, it is suitable for fire protection, construction, and general piping applications. The machine provides a reliable solution for medium to large diameter pipe grooving.

When grooving steel pipes—especially medium to large diameters—stability and consistency are often more important than raw speed.
The RG-2X is designed as a reliable working solution for pipes up to 12 inches. Instead of focusing purely on output numbers, its design prioritizes stable operation and smooth workflow during daily use.
Size Coverage and Working Range
The RG-2X handles standard pipe sizes from 2" to 12", with optional extension down to 1".
This broad range allows users to work with most commonly used pipe sizes without frequent adjustments or equipment changes, helping maintain a continuous and efficient workflow.
Wall Thickness Capability
Across the full size range, the RG-2X can groove pipes up to SCH40, with a maximum wall thickness of 10 mm.
This capacity is sufficient for most fire protection, construction, and general industrial piping systems, covering typical working requirements with ease.
Split-Type Fully Sealed Hydraulic System
The RG-2X features a split-type, fully sealed hydraulic pump design.
Compared with open-style hydraulic systems, this design minimizes dust contamination, ensuring stable performance over time.
In practice, it also reduces maintenance frequency and helps keep the machine operating smoothly for longer periods.
Adjustable Stand Height
The machine offers two stand height options, letting operators choose the working height that best suits site conditions or personal preference.
This flexibility makes it easier to integrate the RG-2X into different jobsite environments.
Applications
The RG-2X is suitable for steel pipe grooving in a wide range of applications, including:
· Fire protection systems
· Construction piping
· General industrial installations
Conclusion
For users handling 2"–12" steel pipes, the RG-2X offers a well-balanced solution with a reliable working range, thoughtful structural design, and consistent operational stability.
