700PD power drive is a portable, electric, heavy-duty power drive that threads pipe and conduit up to 2 In. (50 mm) in diameter. 700PD is 1/2 HP, double insulated, turns at 28 RPM (no load) and uses a forward/reverse switch. It uses Reed R12+ segmental dies and cornerbeads or rigid® 12R dies and cornerbeads. Also, the 700PD power drive can be used to power tapping and drilling machines by adding a Reed power drive adapter. Free safety arm absorbs the forces generated when threading and frees up the operator to oil the dies during threading.
