The PS-75 Heavy Duty Steel Pipe Tool is built for utility contractors, gas distribution crews, and pipeline maintenance professionals who require dependable flow control on steel piping. Capable of squeezing up to 2-inch IPS Schedule 80 steel pipe, the tool is particularly well suited for applications involving difficult or unknown pipe chemistry.
Its hydraulic design delivers powerful closure through short pump strokes, making operation efficient in the field. Redesigned rounded jaws help reduce the risk of damaging brittle pipe materials, while safety enhancements such as a pressure relief bypass system, insulated handles, and a swivel head support safer operation in confined work environments.
Whether used for emergency shutoff situations, repairs, or routine system maintenance, the PS-75 provides the power, control, and reliability required by gas utility professionals.
What pipe size is the PS-75 designed to handle?
The tool is designed to squeeze steel pipe up to 2-inch IPS Schedule 80.
How much force does the tool generate?
The PS-75 delivers up to 34 tons of controlled hydraulic force.
What safety features are included?
The tool includes non-conductive fiberglass insulated handles and a Pressure Relief Bypass System to help prevent over-pumping.
Why are the jaws rounded?
The redesigned rounded jaws help reduce the likelihood of damaging or severing brittle steel pipe during squeeze-off operations.
