Engineered to be the HDD industry’s ultimate exit-side tool, TONGHAND® allows drill rod to be torqued and un-torqued with precision by a single operator from the comfort and safety of the excavator cab.
TONGHAND® eliminates the use of back-breaking wrenches and removes personnel from working in danger zones.
It mounts to any brand of excavator—the excavator’s auxiliary hydraulics safely and efficiently power the TONGHAND® system.
Telescoping roller arms are used to pick up drill rod and securely lift, tilt, shift, rotate and precisely position a single rod or drill string under the total control of the operator.
The patented TongVise™ easily makes and breaks joints with guaranteed precision.
Whether working with drill rod, subs, reamers or other tooling, TONGHAND® saves you time and money while improving safety.
