Tong Pull Back Straps

⚙️ OTECO Tong Pull-Back Straps

Professional Automatic Tong Positioning System for Drilling Operations

OTECO tong pull-back straps act as a rubber spring to automatically re-position tongs to the side of the floor between each makeup or break-out. Hook one loop of the tong strap over the tong line pin at the end of a manual tong arm. Secure the other end loop with a mooring line to a convenient location. The pull-back needs only to be stretched slightly for proper operation.
