Infra-Tect

Infra-Tect is the company that brings to market the Bevel-Sert, a pre-beveled radius insert used in conjunction with any size buried Ductile Iron Pipe, C-900 PVC, IPS PVC, or SDR-26 and SDR-35 PVC pipe or fitting and is intended to facilitate the safe installation of underground utilities where beveling field cut pipe is often required. This product eliminates the industry practice of grinding a bevel onto the cut end of a piece of pipe using a cut off saw. Visit Infra-Tect's website at http://www.Infra-Tect.com The Bevel-Sert may also be used in ductile iron pipe as a barrier to electrical current, promoting the existence of an electrically discontinuous pipe-joint segment and increasing the lifetime of the underground pipe infrastructure. In July 2010, OSHA responded to a letter specifically asking if a bevel could be ground onto a cut piece of pipe with the same tool that is used to cut the pipe, a cut-off saw. OSHA responded that this industry standard operating procedure was prohibited. The Bevel-Sert is specifically designed cost effectively to eliminate this unsafe practice.
