PETOL™ Tong Jack Description


The TJA35 PETOL™ Tong Jack is a portable pneumatic powered actuator designed to
provide the operating force on a tong handle. It was designed to eliminate the use of
“cheaters” and overhead hoists on connections unable to be made up or broken out by hand.

The Tong Jack can produce up to 3500 pounds of force lifting on a tong handle. It is
intended for use in a shop with a floor of adequate strength to support 3500 pounds.

The TJA35 offers the following features:

Tilting the unit back, and engaging the wheels allows the unit to be easily maneuvered
around the workshop.

The applied force is controlled by adjusting an hydraulic relief valve on the side of the
unit. A pressure gauge and pressure to force conversion chart are mounted to the unit
to indicate the applied force produced.

The machine is operated by using minimum 40 psi regulated compressed air.

Tongs can be easily changed to accommodate different diameter ranges and torque
requirements.
