TTT500 - Sumner Heavy-Duty Pipe Roller Stand with Steel Wheels

Technical Overview of the Sumner Pro Roll Pipe Support Stand

The Sumner Pro Roll Pipe Support Stand (SKU: TTT500) is an industrial-grade tool engineered for the precise support and manipulation of cylindrical workpieces during fabrication and welding processes. Designed with the professional pipefitter and welder in mind, this stand features a robust structural steel frame capable of sustaining static loads up to 2,000 lbs (907 kg). The unit is specifically equipped with high-strength steel wheels, making it the optimal choice for handling carbon steel pipes where cross-contamination is not a concern. The steel roller interface ensures minimal rolling resistance, allowing operators to rotate heavy pipe sections manually or with the assistance of a positioner with ease.

Functionally, the stand offers a wide operational range, accommodating pipe diameters from 1/2 inch up to 36 inches. This versatility is critical in mixed-use fabrication shops where project specifications vary daily. The height adjustment mechanism is engineered for both speed and stability, utilizing a heavy-duty acme thread or pin system (depending on the specific sub-model configuration) to allow for fine-tuning of the vertical alignment. This ensures that pipe sections can be perfectly leveled relative to the welding arc or fit-up clamp, reducing the risk of misalignment defects in the final weld joint.

Durability is a core component of the Sumner design philosophy. The Pro Roll stand is finished with a corrosion-resistant powder coating to protect against the harsh conditions typical of MRO environments, including exposure to grinding dust, moisture, and thermal fluctuations. The base is designed with a wide footprint to prevent tipping under eccentric loads, providing a secure platform for critical welding operations. For maintenance, the steel wheels are replaceable, ensuring that the stand remains a long-term asset in the production line. This unit is an essential component for any facility prioritizing safety, efficiency, and precision in pipe fabrication.
