Time is Money!!!
Being in the industry for years and coming across all sorts of situations, the 975 has always been the go-to when performing in-air repairs when the options are limited. You can't always bring the pipe down to do a repair. The versatility to use with our Ridgid 300 has also been great.

Versatile for close quarters grooving
I love how the removable arms allow for grooving in tight spaces. As well as the depth gauge dial

        I contemplated this purchase for several years, but had purchased an off brand roll groover instead.
        Now that I have used the 975, I wish that I had made the purchase eight to ten years earlier. Solid piece of equipment. I don't think you'll go wrong if you purchase the 975, don't hesitate like I did.

            Durable and very mobile
            We are a Fire Sprinkler Service and Installation company and we keep one in each truck. We cannot get the job done without it. Its durable and easily moved from machine to using it in the air or where ever you need it. Highly recommended by this company and will continue to use Rigid simply because they understand the work we do and have the tools to get it done right and, in a lot of cases, quickly. Sometimes we do not have time to mess with complicated tools we need to get to the service call, assess the situation and perform the necessary work and Rigid is right there! Thanks Rigid, Keep up the Great Work!

              I have worked for 42 years in fire protection,
              I have used 3 other groove machines and this one is by far the best,very best, the adjustments, the toughness, ease to use can be on rigid 300 or in the air, absolutely love it

                Does not roll off pipe!
                Many other groovers tend to roll off the pipe when grooving. This groove or however is easy to use on the machine as well as in the air grooving on a piece of pipe that is already installed. Will not fit into tight spaces like the 915 Roll groover but definitely recommended for quick fabrication of pipe!

                  I like that it can be used on machine or in place
                  I've seen roll groovers used many times but I've never needed one until now. I read the instructions, set it up and it worked perfectly. I also needed to make a groove in place on a vertical pipe and that worked well also. I like seeing the instructions on the top of the tool so I don't have to stop and look it up. Not sure how long that will last with different people using the tool but it's good for now. I really liked how easy it was to follow the instructions and set it up for a first time user. I happened to have a tape to measure the groove because I've been in the trade for a long time but I thought it would have been included with the tool
