TONGHAND® XS

Compact and nimble, THXS gets the big jobs done

EXIT-SIDE SOLUTION FOR THE HORIZONTAL DRILLING INDUSTRY

 

Engineered to be the HDD industry’s ultimate exit-side tool, the nimble THXS (little brother to the award-winning TONGHAND®) possesses the ability to work with smaller diameter drill rod and tooling.

The TONGHAND® family of products allow drill rod to be torqued and un-torqued with precision by a single operator from the comfort and safety of the excavator cab, eliminating the use of back-breaking wrenches and removing personnel from danger zones.

THXS mounts to any brand of excavator—the excavator’s auxiliary hydraulics safely and efficiently power the system.

The patented TongVise™ easily makes and breaks joints with guaranteed precision. Whether working with drill rod, subs, reamers or other tooling, THXS gets the little jobs done with big savings on time, money, and risk.
