Pipe Pusher

The Horizontal Pipe Pusher provides a safe working environment when installing pipe lines by reducing the need for manual intervention and time in the trench, therefore reducing the risk of injury. The device comprises a large adjustable steel unit which utilises the excavator’s Universal Quick Hitch System (80mm and 90mm diameter pins). The adjustable width settings make the Pipe Pusher very versatile and enable the buffer to be just a few centimetres wider than the socket, making it a snug fit within the trench box. The Horizontal Pipe Pusher is suitable for jointing DN900 to DN1500 concrete pipes.
