Frequently Asked Questions

What is a pullhead used for in Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD)?
A pullhead is a critical fitting attached to the leading end of a pipe, allowing it to be securely pulled through a borehole during HDD installations. It ensures a strong connection between the pipe and the drill rig, reducing the risk of disconnection or damage during pullback operations.
Selecting the correct pullhead depends on your pipe diameter, material, and the specific demands of your bore. PipeTech Rentals offers pullheads from 4” to 36” and can help you choose the right fit based on your pipe type (steel, HDPE, etc.) and ground conditions.
