Catalog Pages | PullersFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Short Answer: Innerduct pullers are used to grip and pull small-diameter duct or innerduct during HDD installations.
Correct use: Innerduct pullers thread directly into the inside wall of the duct using sharp double cutting edges, creating a firm mechanical grip with minimal stretch. They are commonly attached directly to a line swivel or clevis-style connector for controlled pullback.
Technical details: This "carrot-style" puller has no moving parts and cuts a thread into the duct itself, providing strong holding power without expanding the duct. The design makes it quick to install and economical for repeated innerduct pulls.
Incorrect use includes: Using the puller on large-diameter conduit or on duct outside its rated I.D. range. Incorrect use can introduce greater risk of poor engagement or duct damage.
Short Answer: Innerduct pullers are often called "carrots" because they resemble a carrot's shape. They are compatible with small-diameter duct and innerduct based on inside diameter (I.D.).
Correct use: Select a puller that matches the duct's inside diameter so the cutting edges can properly bite and form threads inside the duct wall.
Technical details: Innerduct pullers typically cover I.D. working ranges from approximately 0.72 inches up to 2.08 inches, depending on the model. Proper I.D. matching ensures strong grip without excessive stretching.
Incorrect use includes: Selecting a puller that is too large or too small for the duct I.D. Incorrect use can introduce greater risk of weak grip or duct damage.
Short Answer: Innerduct pullers can be used in any ground condition once the bore is properly prepared.
Correct use: Ground conditions are addressed during drilling and reaming. After a clean, stable bore is created, the puller provides a secure internal grip for installing innerduct through dirt, clay, mixed ground, and other formations.
Technical details: Because innerduct pullers rely on mechanical engagement inside the duct, their performance depends on bore quality, lubrication, and controlled pull forces rather than soil type.
Incorrect use includes: Pulling innerduct through unstable or undersized bores or using excessive pull force to overcome bore issues. Incorrect use can introduce greater risk of installation damage.
