Description

Bear Hug™ from REED is a modular squeeze tool system for PE using hydraulic cylinders for an industry-leading 83,400 pounds of squeeze force.

PES8BT base tool includes stops for 3 to 8 inch PE pipe in common DR sizes for North America pipe sizes. Plus, SDR 9 size is new for REED on PES8BT.

REED recommends two-person operation.   

For safety, there is a choice of two grounding rod installation spots.

  • Base squeeze tool of the REED Bear Hug™ Squeeze Tool System.
  • Requires either a manual hydraulic or air-over-hydraulic pump for operation.   
  • Based on job needs, choose from an air-over hydraulic pump PESAPA (#04330) or manual hand pump PESMPA (#04329) to add to your PES8BT base tool.
  • Includes two sets of color-coded stops for North America (imperial) pipe sizes.
  • Color-coded stops increase visibility of stop sizes and help operator quickly confirm that stops are set properly, thus reducing user error.
  • Double bar design for squeeze confidence and less residual impact on the pipe.
  • The double-acting system is designed to squeeze and release with hydraulic pump. No more reliance on internal springs for retraction since those spring systems are more prone to wear over time. 
  • Massive 83,400 lb. squeeze force.
  • Saddle bolts can be hand-threaded to mechanically lock the tool in the squeeze position.
  • Saddle clamps are mounted right to the unit for operator convenience.
  • Weight: 175 lbs.  REED'S design is almost 100 pounds (45 kg) less than competitive model.  

NOTES:

Reed strongly recommends use of the PEGR7 Static Grounding Device (#04621) with PE Squeeze Tools. Use a grounding device as a precaution against static build-up. Dissipate the charge and minimize the possibility of ignition.
