RIDGID Model 1233 Universal Pipe Threading Machine 115V (20220)

The RIDGID Model 1233 Universal Threading Machine is a high-performance pipe threading solution designed for professional pipefitters, plumbers and mechanical contractors. Built for reliability and precision, it delivers consistent threading on pipes from ¼″ to 3″ (8–80mm) with a powerful 1.7 kW universal motor operating at 36 RPM for smooth and controlled threading.

Engineered for demanding workshop and site use, the Model 1233 features through-head oiling with an integrated reservoir, ensuring constant lubrication of the dies and workpiece. This improves thread quality, extends die life and reduces heat during operation.

The machine is equipped with a heavy-duty rotary switch and integral footswitch, providing safe and convenient forward, reverse and stop operation. A hammer-type chuck with replaceable rocker-action jaw inserts ensures secure pipe grip, while the cam-action rear centring device maintains pipe alignment for precise threading results.

Supplied with RIDGID die heads, cutter, reamer and cutting fluid, the Model 1233 is a complete threading workstation capable of handling pipe preparation, cutting, reaming and threading with professional efficiency.
