No Dig Equipment offers three proven pipe pulling solutions to suit a wide variety of trenchless installation projects.
Our HDD towing heads are designed to securely grip the inside of HDPE pipe during the pullback stage of horizontal directional drilling.
Using a precision-engineered expanding jaw mechanism, the towing head increases its grip as pulling force is applied, providing maximum holding strength while helping protect the pipe from damage.
Our heavy-duty cable socks provide a versatile solution for pulling cables, conduits and smaller diameter pipe where flexibility is required.
Manufactured from high-strength woven steel mesh, cable socks tighten around the cable or pipe as pulling force is applied, providing excellent grip without damaging the product being installed.
Cable socks are commonly used throughout civil construction, utilities, mining and telecommunications industries.
Our screw-in duct pullers provide a simple and reliable solution for pulling smaller diameter ducts and conduits during HDD installations.
The threaded design allows the puller to securely engage the inside of the conduit, providing a strong pulling connection without the need for additional gripping mechanisms.
They are particularly suited to telecommunications, electrical conduit and lightweight utility installations.
| Product | Best For | Gripping Method |
|---|---|---|
| Towing Heads | HDPE pipe installations | Internal expanding jaws |
| Screw-In Duct Pullers | Small conduit and duct | Threaded internal grip |
| Cable Socks | Cables, conduit and flexible pipe | Woven steel mesh grip |
