SDC - Model BTC Series -Hydraulic Breakout Wrenches
The redesigned lightweight and compact BTC Series Hydraulic Breakout Wrenches allows for hands-free operation of pipe joint breaking from the safety of the operator’s console and eliminates the need for manual tongs. Outstanding breakout torque and clamping force for faster pipe change-outs. Hardened vee-groove jaw inserts provide a full, secure grip on the pipe, increasing the service life of jaw inserts and drill pipe tool joints. An open ‘C’ shape design permits the operator to drive the rig off the drill pipe without having to push through the table. The distance between clamp tables is more compact, clamp holders receive hardened jaw inserts which are more durable and have a very low replacement cost. Jaw inserts can be installed and removed without the need of tools. Construction of rotation turret uses fewer moving parts. Easy retrofits to any drill rig. Different size adapter brackets available to accommodate any spindle to mast distance.
