The ESCO Tool Company was founded in 1954 and developed the first portable beveling machines for tube and pipe fabrication. After early success on the Trident Nuclear Submarine project, this equipment rapidly became the most popular way to bevel high pressure tube and pipe on-site.
Althoug h earlier models clamped on the outside diameter, ESCO developed the first narrow bo
dy inside diameter clamping machines, starting in the 1970s, to satisfy the needs of the boiler industry. Seeing how high the demand was for portable fabrication tools, the “Mini” and “Wart” were born, starting the most prestigious line of beveling equipment known to the industry; MILLHOG. Since then, the drive to innovate and find on-site fabrication solutions continues to grow stronger and stronger.
ESCO tool now has a line of over 23 field-proven products that are used all over the world in power generation plants, pulp and paper plants, refineries, fabrication facilities, public work systems, and other metalworking industries. Our goal is to provide our customers wi th a combination of our high quality products and comprehensive customer service so that they can feel completely comfortable when it comes to their tooling needs.
