TocDem Push Pro Excavator Pipe Pushers

Most 125mm, 180mm, 250mm & 400mm sizes are in stock, if not they can be manufactured within 2 - 3 weeks. Large "Claw" sizes 500mm, 630mm & 900mm are made to order. Once we have received your deposit payment & the specifications of your Digger, so that we can manufacture the head bracket / hanger, we can usually deliver these Claw larger sizes anywhere in the UK within 6 – 8 weeks.

We only accept payment via bank transfer. After placing an order, we will send you an invoice with our bank details.

We offer a full 2-year warranty on all new TocDem Attachments.

Yes, our engineering department can gladly manufacture and supply head brackets/hangers only. We need the “drill pattern”, and the make and model of your breaker along with the make & model of the Excavator you are using it with.

Excavator pipe pushers offer several advantages over traditional manual pipe handling methods, primarily focusing on increased safety, efficiency, and reduced labour requirements. They streamline pipe handling operations, minimise the need for workers to enter trenches or handle pipes manually, and allow for faster insertion speeds.

Additionally, TocDem Excavator Pipe Pushers can improve efficiency by allowing operators to quickly and accurately pick up and move PE pipe without the need for manual labour. This not only saves time but also reduces the risk of injury to workers.

Another benefit of our Excavator Pipe Pushers is their precision and control, which enables operators to place pipe exactly where they need it. This level of accuracy can help to minimise wasted time and optimise the use of resources on job sites. Overall, the benefits of TocDem Excavator Pipe Pushers make them a valuable asset for businesses looking to improve productivity and streamline their operations.

The Pipe Pusher should always be attached to an excavator of the correct weight, class and capacity of the machine. When in doubt, contact the supplier.

The weight of the Pipe Pusher, increased by the weight of the load being picked up, must never exceed the maximum allowance of lifting power. For further information consult the Excavator manual.

Always pick up a long load at its centre of gravity, to prevent the excavator from either rotating or tipping over. It is not permissible to use the Pipe Handler to hit or pound. Whilst connecting or disconnecting, lubricating or other maintenance work, the Pipe Pusher must be stable and on a flat surface. Before performing lubricating or other maintenance work the engine should always be shut down.

When choosing the right size Pipe Pusher for your mini excavator, consider these key factors:

• Excavator Specs: The excavator's operating weight and hydraulic power (pressure and flow rate) determine its lifting capacity.
• Pipe Pusher Weight and Capacity: Ensure the Pipe Pushers weight is within the excavator's limits.
• Compatibility: Make sure the Pipe Pusher is compatible with your excavator's hitch system.

At TocDem we recommend the Push Pro 180mm-63mm for a midi excavator. That said, always consult the manufacturer specifications for your excavator you're considering. Many manufacturers also offer attachment matching tools to simplify the process. If you are unsure please do not hesitate to contact our team at TocDem.

An Excavator Pipe Pusher is a versatile Digger Attachment used in various Utility Pipe Insertion tasks.

Here are some common advantages:

Enhanced Safety:

By automating pipe handling and reducing the need for operators to be in or near the trench, excavator pipe pushers significantly minimise the risk of accidents and injuries associated with manual handling and trench work.

Increased Efficiency and Productivity:

These attachments allow for quicker and more efficient pipe placement, with some models capable of inserting long lengths of pipe in a single operation. They also streamline workflows by reducing the need for multiple steps or manual handling during pipe insertion.

Reduced Labour Costs:

The ability to perform pipe handling with fewer workers translates to lower labour costs, as well as reduced strain on personnel.

Versatility:

Excavator pipe pushers can be adapted to various pipe diameters and insertion methods, making them a versatile solution for diverse projects. Some models are designed for both small and large diameter pipes, and some are even suitable for "live insertion" where pipes are inserted into existing lines.

Reduced Damage to Pipes:

Many pipe pushers are designed to grip pipes securely without causing damage, which can be a concern with traditional slinging methods.

Improved Site Conditions:

By reducing the need for trench work and manual handling, excavator pipe pushers can minimize disturbance to the surrounding area and improve overall site safety.

Simplified Operations:

Many excavator pipe pushers have a one-stage setup for the entire insertion process, making them simple to operate and reducing the need for specialized training.

Space Efficiency:

The compact design of some pipe pushers allows for efficient storage and transport on construction site
