What Is a Screw-In Duct Puller?
A screw-in duct puller is a specialised pipe pulling attachment used to install polyethylene pipe and ducting during HDD and underground boring projects. The tapered threaded design screws into the inside wall of the duct, creating a strong internal grip that tightens under load during pulling operations.
This allows contractors to safely tow conduit, poly pipe, and ducting through underground bores with reduced risk of pipe slippage or damage.
Common Applications
- Polyethylene pipe
- HDPE pipe
- Telecommunications conduit
- Electrical conduit
- Utility ducting
- Underground cable ducting
How Screw-In Duct Pullers Work
Our duct pullers use a tapered buttress thread design that grips the internal wall of the pipe as pulling force increases. This self-tightening mechanism provides secure towing performance during underground installation.
The design is ideal for:
- Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD)
- Trenchless pipe installation
- Telecommunications conduit installation
- Electrical conduit pulling
- Underground utility installation
- Poly pipe towing applications
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a screw-in duct puller used for?
A screw-in duct puller is used to safely pull polyethylene pipe and ducting during Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) and underground utility installation projects.
How do HDD duct pullers work?
HDD duct pullers screw into the inside of the pipe or conduit using a tapered thread. As pulling tension increases, the puller creates a stronger internal grip for secure towing through underground bores.
What types of pipe can be used with screw-in duct pullers?
These pullers are commonly used with HDPE pipe, polyethylene pipe, conduit, telecommunications ducting, and electrical utility ducting.
Are zinc-plated duct pullers better for underground work?
Yes. Zinc plating improves corrosion resistance and helps protect the puller from moisture and harsh underground conditions.
Are your towing heads Australian made?
Yes. Our towing heads are manufactured to meet the requirements of Australian HDD contractors and utility installers.
