PT Welding offers a complete line of plate and pipe beveling solutions to meet even the most demanding steel fabrication requirements. From manual, hand-held machines to large automatic machines, PT Welding has you covered! Weld Preparation is one of those fundamentals which if not addressed properly can be a root cause of many problems. If you’re not making careful consideration of your beveling process, chances are it’s costing you money. Achieving complete joint penetration welds require accurate and consistent bevels that fall within your groove preparation tolerance. Inaccurate bevel geometry can create some costly problems. Lack of fusion, lack of penetration, burn through, underfilling and over welding can all be a result of your initial beveling process.
There are several different methods used to prepare single and double V groove joints for welding. Some methods are more advantageous than others.

Grinding your bevels with fiber wheels has been the norm for many shops. This process requires little capital expenditure. Electric grinders are inexpensive and a type 27 fiber wheel costs just a few dollars. The downside to this method is that it is slow and labor intensive. Without proper control, grinding can lead to inaccurate and ununiform bevels. This method also presents some very serious safety concerns. Grinding wheels generate hazardous dust and if not used properly, can cause physical injury from disintegrating wheels.
Oxy-Fuel or Plasma burning are also common methods of beveling. These processes are much faster than grinding and when used in conjunction with automation, can be very productive. There are however shortcomings. Burning requires a higher level of skill. Achieving quality Double V Groove bevels with these processes can often be challenging. Kerf, torch position, and torch angle can create variations in the root face dimension(land) that often lead to problems with weld penetration. Thermal Cutting can also produce surface oxidations, decarburization and a Heat Affected Zone(HAZ), all of which require secondary grinding operations to be removed from the material before welding. We utilize two 12′ x 40′ tables.
Professional Provider Of Steel Plate Beveling Services
PT Welding supports our clients by delivering the steel plate and pipe you need in an already beveled condition. Letting us handle your plate beveling activity in-house allows you to allocate equipment and personnel for more project-sensitive processes, which translates to:
- Faster Turnaround Time
- Minimized Downtime
- Less Project Delays
- Greater Productivity
- Reduced Equipment Costs
- Improved Performance
Sometimes, you may not have the resources to obtain precision plate beveling equipment. This forces fabricators to bevel by hand, which is time-consuming and imprecise.
Our CNC plate beveling machines produce high-quality, precision bevels very quickly, meaning the material you receive is immediately ready for further processing. Its capabilities include:
- Straight Line Steel Beveling
- Curved Beveling, Or Radius Beveling
- Compound Steel Beveling
Custom Beveling Services
When it comes to steel beveling services, there’s no such thing as a one-angle-fits-all solution. Bevel geometry significantly influences joining quality, and different applications may require unique angles.
PT Welding can bevel steel plate and pipe edges to specified angles. Just let us know your requirements.
Our edge beveling services are ideal for any application where steel products are fitted together. Common industries that can benefit from receiving already beveled shipments of steel include:
