Each new pneumatic piercing tool comes with the Power
Port Reverse feature. The patented quarter-turn reverse
design pneumatically locks into forward or reverse, prevent-
ing accidental direction change during the bore. The patented
Debris Free Tailcone was also incorporated to eliminate the
introduction of debris into the tool body, increasing overall
production and tool life.
“With the release of these four models, HammerHead has a
complete line of quarter-turn reverse piercing tools with sizes
ranging from 2 inches to 5.125 inches,” said Will LaBlanc,
HammerHead national sales and product manager.
The new Catamount piercing tools, along with the entire
Catamount line, are designed for tough working conditions
in a wide range of soil conditions. The tools are engineered
without mechanical springs, so contractors enjoy more
productivity with lower cost of replacement parts. The tools
are also easy to service in the field due to HammerHead’s
original tailbolt design. A two-year warranty offers peace of
mind.
Additional Catamount features include exclusive Smart
Head Technology to reduce tool swim and increase perfor-
mance, a redesigned body housing providing better durabil-
ity and tool life, and HammerHead’s original Clamped Rear
Anvil that provides 200 percent more clamp load. Composite
wear rings also eliminate metal-to-metal contact, decreasing
wear and sustaining performance levels. Made of a specially
designed composite, these rings offer a low coefficient of fric-
tion and have a higher abrasion resistance.
The Catamount piercing tools provide contractors with a
single tool for a variety of ground conditions.
