The
three main components of the TIIGER Pole Puller are:
•The
low-pressure hydraulic cylinder weighs only 57 lbs.
yet safely delivers up to 50,120 lbs. of lift to pull
poles from even the toughest soils,
•The
swivel chain hook assembly attaches the single, lighter-weight
chain closer to the ground for greater safety and maximum
lift per stroke, and
•The
sturdy base plate will not bend even under the tremendous
force exerted by the cylinder.
Individually,
these components are ingeniously designed, and when
combined they become the safest and most efficient pole
puller available.
Some
important features of the TIIGER Pole Puller:
1.
The safety factor is 3‡:1 on all our manufactured parts.
2.
The cylinder is rated at 50,120 lbs. of lift at 2,800
psi input. To obtain the lift capacity when it is powered
from a truck's hydraulic system, multiply the truck
hydraulic system psi by 17.9.
3.
The 57 lb. hydraulic cylinder is the lightest puller
cylinder available.
4.
Our regenerative cylinder design is able to produce
40% more lift over other cylinders of the same diameter.
5. Every hydraulic cylinder is physically tested to
two times the rated input pressure. This means our cylinders
are tested to 5,600 psi.
6.
Internal reliefs prevent exploding or imploding if a
cylinder fails to couple.
7.
Our equipment will pull poles that are cut lower to
the ground (14-16".)
8.
The low point of chain attachment minimizes kick-out
and eliminates the need for a second chain.
9.
The sliding mechanism minimizes chain slippage by pre-tensioning
the chain.
10.
We use a lighter ‡" alloy chain and still avoid chain
failure due to the unique swivel chain hook attachment
and face plate design.
11.
All three pins and the chain hook casting are made of
the strongest commercial stainless metal available (160,000
psi yield point.)
12.
The base plate is designed to withstand 50,120 lbs.
of force without bending.
13.
Our optional back plate accessory (below) makes anyone's
pole puller more efficient. |
