Product Description

17 Hydra-Shift® Tong

For casing up to 17 inches, here's a tong that combines speed and the ability to handle smaller sizes economically. If you are running 17-inch casing, give this tong a try. The 17 Hydra-Shift® features the two-speed motor and the two-speed gear train, which allows for multiple selections of torque or RPM, not to mention the tong's smoother operation.

Tri-Grip® Backup

The Tri-Grip® Backup is the industry standard for reliable make-up and break-out of tubular connections that are optionally supplied with Eckel tongs. Utilizing two hydraulic cylinders and a three head arrangement ensures a slip-free operation. The backup is suspended at an adjustable level below the power tong using three hanger legs and allows the backup to remain stationary while the power tong moves vertically to compensate for the connection's thread travel. The Tri-Grip® uses two pivoting heads and one stationary. The Eckel Tri-Grip® Backup has exceptional gripping capabilities with Rig Dies when running drill pipe or optional Eckel Wrap-Around True-Grit® dies or Pyramid Fine Tooth dies for making up other types of tubular.
