Bear Hug\u2122 with hydraulic cylinders provides an industry-leading 83,400 pounds of squeeze force. For squeeze control, choose from an air-over hydraulic pump PESAPA or manual hand pump PESMPA to work with the PES8BT base tool.&nbsp; REED Bear Hug features a double bar configuration for most confident squeeze. In addition to more secure flow stoppage, a double point squeeze is safer as it lessens any chance of pipe damage. A bottom swing-out bar with latch allows for simple pipe enclosure. Compact and lightweight (for the industry) at 175 pounds, the PES8BT can be lifted into position with its oversized U-bolt.&nbsp; The double-acting system both squeezes and releases with hydraulic pump \u2013 no more reliance on internal springs for retraction is needed. Color-coded stops increase visibility and help operator quickly confirm that stops are set properly. Pipe centering arrows aid in alignment. PES8BT base tool includes stops for 3-8 inch PE pipe in common DR sizes for North America pipe sizes. For safety, there are grounding device installation spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"747\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fanarpublishing.net\/arabworldagribusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/04328_PES8BT_04330_PESAPA_RGB-1024x747.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1129\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fanarpublishing.net\/arabworldagribusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/04328_PES8BT_04330_PESAPA_RGB-1024x747.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fanarpublishing.net\/arabworldagribusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/04328_PES8BT_04330_PESAPA_RGB-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fanarpublishing.net\/arabworldagribusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/04328_PES8BT_04330_PESAPA_RGB-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fanarpublishing.net\/arabworldagribusiness\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/04328_PES8BT_04330_PESAPA_RGB.jpg 1507w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Modular PE Squeeze tool system allows choice of manual or air-over-hydraulic pump operation.<\/li><li>Double bar design for squeeze confidence.<\/li><li>Massive 83,400 lb.
