Anyone know where I can find a tool to bevel the inside and outside of PVC pipe? I know I've seen them but I've searched the net and come up empty.
PVC bevelling tool?

They make a deburring tool. Sure you are not thinking about that?

Same thing more or less I guess, but I can't find one.

There should be a section at the local home improvement store where they have all the pipe cutters, reamers, etc.......

Gee, really?
I'm glad someone told me.
Sorry if my terminology doesn't match yours. Most of the plumbing I have done is with black and galvanized pipe. I have a big Ridgid pipe machine, but no tools for PVC.
I have done searches for PVC reamers, bevellers, deburrers, and all combinations I can think of and still come up dry.

I checked their website, along with sLowes, but they didn't show them online. Which I know doesn't mean the stores don't carry them.
Guess I could go look, it won't kill me. Just thought someone might know for sure and save me some time.
Cheers, all.

I know that my local Lowes has them.
I have used razor blades in the past to bevel the inside of pvc and I used a belt sander for the outside for a potato gun.
Just out of curiosity. Why do you want to bevel the pvc.

That is because ther ain't such a thing. You are thinking about metal pipe terms and ideas.
Unless you are building some type of contraption where you have parts that don't fit and you want to "customize" them they don't ream or deburr or bevel PVC. You just cut it and if you used a saw rather than a PVC cutter, you use a piece of emory paper to clean the cut end.

If you follow Harolds link above it is in the description that it is used for pvc and cpvc.
"Ream and deburr the inside and outside edges of 3/16"-1 1/4" PVC and CPVC tubing and 3/16"-1 1/2" metal tubing with one tool. Tools have three cutters on each end and a die cast zinc body. They can cut both clockwise and counterclockwise."
yes there is such a thing i used to own one we had to use it when i took my state test for my plumbing license the manufactures of pvc plumbing fittings sayes you should bevel the out side of the pipe before glueing so there will be a bead of glue around the end of the pipe when in the fitting I must admit tho i glue pvc drainage pipeing every day and i just cut it off with my chop saw prime and glue and do not have a problem

What size pipe are we talking about. I have seen them for pipe over 2 inches and up to 8 inches but not typical pipe we would use.
Emory paper works great and is cheap.
