At a former employer a mentor of mine had a tool that was used to blow pull strings in pipe in record time using a large Air Compressor. An attachment was used with PVC or ridged pipe. With the massive amount of compressed air hundred foot runs were blown in seconds. Does anyone know who makes the attachment to the air compressor? Thank you

I don't believe Greenlee made it. I have been researching for a while now. It came in a nice case, 2" to 4" if I'm not mistaken. I'm going to try and get in touch with the gentleman. Thank you for your time.

save money ,we blow greenlee numbered string in conduits like it's going out of style, on a daily basis, we ty a bag to the string ,make the bag or what we like to call a parachute a little bit smaller than the conduit your trying to blow through ,push bag in conduit turn on air and let it run it's course .....we use a 200 psi compressor for all jobs .....works like charm! SAVE A $199..00 dollars ...........200 psi blows water ,mud etc out of conduits.........
 
I had a lot of fun with a bunch of white hats one time.
They insisted that they knew where the stub-up was for the PIV valve and knew how to find it.
They went out to look for the stub up while I manned the compressor.
The "know it all guy" called me on the radio about 100 yards away and told be to give it a blast. I unleashed a gyser that would make old faithful cry.
Should have seen them bumping into eachother trying to get out of the way of all that stinky mangrove swamp water.
Yes, I gave it another blast and called them back asking if thay saw anything. Didnt hear back soooo.... I did one more.... pipe was empty.
They came back all dignified and professional and said they would have it marked for us.
They all smelled just like that rotten swamp water.
Made my day of course, that was 20+ years ago and I can still see them running around under the black water cloud.:grin: :grin: :grin:

Of course, that's methane you know. Besides being a greenhouse gas, it also makes a Class I, Div 1 area. :wink:
