We offer two pneumatic models of internal pipe abrasive blasting machines, designed to clean the internal diameter of pipes ranging from 51mm to 914mm, up to 40 feet in length. These tools are easy to operate and require no rotation of heavy pipes — saving both time and labor cost.
The tool is inserted into the hollow pipe and connected to a portable abrasive blaster via a blasting hose, then carried on a lightweight centering carriage and pushed manually from one end to the other. This process removes old paint, rust, and carbon mill scale, delivering a white metal finish ready for recoating.
Key Features of Internal Pipe Blasting Equipment
- 360° internal blasting for pipe diameters 2″–36″, up to 12 meters in length — removes contamination of any kind
- No pipe rotation required — works on heavy or fixed pipe sections without extra handling equipment
- Lightweight and efficient — built for effortless field handling
- Pneumatically operated — no electricity needed on-site
- Compatible with Portable Sand Blasting Machine — Models SB PORT 150/300/500/700/1000, quick and easy setup
- Adjustable centering carriage and collar — one unit accommodates a wide range of pipe diameters
- Abrasive flexibility — supports mesh 18–40 (excludes river garnet/sand, aluminum oxide, and silicon oxide)
- Built for heavy industry — refineries, pipe liners/manufacturers, shipyards, water, gas, and chemical plants

Which Model Do You Need?
(I) SB IPBT — For Small ID Pipes (51–305mm)
- Ideal for small ID 50mm – 300mm.
- No moving part cleans through the continuous circular motion of blast stream
- Obtained with the aid of the Tungsten Carbide deflector tip.
- High-Quality TC parts, ensuring a longer life.
- Light Weight (5 Kgs) for easy handling.
- Centering Collars assist to increase range.
(II) SB IRBT (Rotoblast) — For Mid-to-Large ID Pipes (165–914mm)
- Regularly recognized as ‘Rotoblast’, as rotating head are driven via compressed air, carrying two nozzles positioned radially running at constant velocity to provide uniform and even blasting.
- The Machine comes with 3 leg support for better grip, centering carriage and two TC lined nozzles.

Industries We Serve
Our internal pipe abrasive blasting machines are built for sectors where pipe integrity, coating adhesion, and downtime cost directly affect operations. Here’s where our machines are most commonly deployed:
Refineries
Refinery pipelines are exposed to constant heat, pressure, and corrosive media, which means internal surfaces need regular descaling and recoating to prevent failure. Our machines clean internal mill scale and rust without requiring pipe removal or rotation — reducing shutdown time during turnaround and maintenance windows.
Pipeline Manufacturers
For manufacturers producing new pipe sections, internal surface preparation is a quality-control step before coating or lining. Our internal blasting equipment delivers a consistent white metal finish across varying pipe diameters (51–914mm), helping maintain coating adhesion standards batch after batch.
Shipyards
Ship piping systems — ballast lines, fuel lines, cooling systems — require internal descaling as part of routine maintenance and dry-dock servicing. Our lightweight, pneumatically operated tools work in tight vessel compartments where rotating heavy pipe sections isn’t practical or safe.
Water, Gas & Chemical Plants
Pipelines carrying water, gas, or chemical media are prone to internal buildup and corrosion over time, which can compromise flow efficiency and product purity. Our machines restore internal pipe surfaces to a clean, coating-ready finish — supporting both preventive maintenance and pipeline rehabilitation projects.
