Abstract: To simplify the apparatus and reduce handling, a pipe threading section and a pipe cutting section are axially aligned with respect to a pipe clamping apparatus, both located at the same side of the pipe clamping section. A guide is provided, extending parallel to the axis of the pipe, to guide the clamping section on the apparatus for movement in selected positions, the moving distance of the clamping section being greater than the distance between that side of the threading tool of the pipe threading section and the cutting tool of the cutting tool section which faces the clamping section.
