RIDGID 700 Specifications/Standard Equipment, Accessories, Threading Capacity, Geared Threaders

No. 700 Portable Power Drive

The Power Drive is designed for use with the No. 12R Die Heads (1/8″ – 2″ pipe). Other RIDGID drop head die heads (00R, 00-RB, 11R) and RIDGID Geared Threaders (21/2″ – 6″) require the use of adapters. A manual oiling system is available to flood the work dur- ing the threading operations. The No. 775 Support Arm should be used to secure the Power Drive and resist high handle forces developed when threading one inch or larger pipe with drop head die heads.

The RIDGID Model 700 Power Drive can also be used in other applications such as to power the RIDGID 258 Pipe Cutter and to turn valves. These applications require the use of the No. 774 Square Drive Adapter.
