OVERVIEW

Get the Perfect Grip for Your Tube Prep

Every welder knows that a perfect weld starts with a perfect prep. If you are running a Tri Tool tube squarer or severing machine, you rely on your clamping system to hold that pipe dead steady. The Tri Tool TR-2162 V-Block is the accessory you need when you are working with 1-inch, 7/8-inch, or 13/16-inch tubing. When you are out in the field or in the fab shop, trying to square up stainless tubing for an orbital welder, any movement in the pipe means a bad cut, a gap in your fit-up, and a rejected weld. This V-Block eliminates that headache by locking your tube in place with absolute precision.

Why swap out your blocks? Because one size does not fit all. Using the correct V-Block for your specific tube diameter ensures that the machine centers itself perfectly on the pipe. This block is specifically machined to handle .875, .813, .780, and 1.000 inch ODs. It grabs the tube securely without crushing it, which is a lifesaver when you are dealing with expensive polished sanitary tubing. The hardened steel construction means it won't get chewed up after a few jobs; it is built to last through thousands of cuts.

Don't let worn-out or mismatched tooling slow down your production. If your current blocks are slipping or you are gearing up for a job with these specific pipe sizes, the TR-2162 is the right tool for the job. It installs quickly into your machine's headstock, letting you switch over sizes and get back to cutting chips in minutes. Good fit-up makes for easy welding, and good fit-up starts with this V-Block.

  • Secure Hold: Prevents tube rotation during heavy cutting.
  • Versatile Sizing: Covers four distinct tube sizes in the 3/4" to 1" range.
  • Field Ready: Tough enough for on-site construction environments.
  • OEM Quality: Guaranteed fit for your Tri Tool equipment.

FAQ

The TR-2162 is designed to accommodate tube Outer Diameters (ODs) of 0.875 inches (7/8"), 0.813 inches (13/16"), 0.780 inches, and 1.000 inches (1").

No, V-Blocks are typically model-specific. This part is designed for specific Tri Tool tube severing and squaring modules. Please verify your machine model number against the parts manual before ordering.

Using the correct size ensures the tube is centered perfectly relative to the cutting bit and prevents the tube from slipping or being crushed during the clamping process.

The V-Block is manufactured from hardened steel to resist wear and maintain precision tolerances over repeated use.

It is not recommended. Using the block on mismatched sizes can lead to poor clamping, damage to the block, or inaccurate cuts.

This SKU typically refers to a single V-Block assembly. Depending on your machine's clamping mechanism, you may require a matching set.

Yes, it is commonly used in high-purity applications. However, ensure the block is clean and free of carbon contamination if strict stainless isolation is required.

The block typically slides into the machine's clamping fixture or saddle and is secured with a set screw or retaining pin, depending on the specific machine model.
