Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / An operation manual for a tube cutting machine

English term or phrase: from the tube face and facing only.

Hello to all, and thanks in advance!

The paragraph:
Toolholder head (fix); equipped with ID tracking wheel to follow tube profile plus tool to chamfer according to API 5L specifications (outside chamfering 30° *from the tube face and facing only*). Note: to be employed only when chamfering according to API 5L specifications.

I know chamfering means "biselado", for welding pipe lengths, but 'face and facing' is giving me trouble. I don't have drawings to "see" what's going on withthis machine.

Thanks again.

de la superficie del tubo y recubriéndolo solamente)

Explanation:
face sería el frente o el anverso pero me pareció mas adecuado superficie
facing=providing something with a surface of a different material
yo diría que eso es recubrir o revestir. Entonces se leería: (biselado exterior a 30° de la superficie del tubo y recubriéndolo solamente). Espero que tenga sentido....Suerte!
