Pipe Tongs are a safe, cost-effective way to move concrete, metal or plastic pipe.
Kenco’s exclusive actuator uses the power of gravity to allow the scissor action of the Pipe Tongs to clamp securely on PVC, iron or concrete pipe. If pipe is moved using straps or teacups, the Pipe Lift attachment will make a definite impact on productivity.
The operator is able to use the pipe tongs to grab, lift and move pipe without assistance. The Pipe Tongs’ unique, wide scissor-grip design enables a stable lift to be achieved even when the pipe has been picked off-center, eliminating the need to position a sling dead-center. Models are available in semi automatic and fully automatic models. 800.653.6069, www.kenco.com
