Product Description

4½ Hydra-Shift® Tong

The 4½ Hydra-Shift® is packed with all the features you've come to expect from Eckel: patented cam biting system, quick-change sliding heads, self-aligning open throat. Options include both torque gauge and manual backup or cam-type hydraulic backup. The unit is also available with front or side controls, standard chain bridle suspension, or with its own built-in suspension arm.

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.
