Caldwell Model CPP Pipe Pick Concrete Pipe Lifter
The Caldwell Model CPP Pipe Pickā¢ is a patented concrete pipe lifting tool designed for fast, safe, and efficient handling of precast concrete pipe.
Engineered for vertical lifting applications, the CPP series allows operators to lift and place pipe without entering or reaching inside the pipe, improving jobsite safety and reducing handling time during utility and infrastructure installation projects.
The compact Pipe Pickā¢ design makes it ideal for sewer, drainage, water, and municipal construction projects where repetitive pipe placement is required. Its counter-weighted lift arm and beveled engagement edge allow quick insertion, secure lifting, and easy removal after pipe placement.
Key Features
- Patented Pipe Pickā¢ concrete pipe lifting design
- Faster and safer alternative to manual pipe handling
- No need for workers to reach inside the pipe
- Operators remain above the pipe during lifting operations
- Counter-weighted lift arm for easier disengagement
- Tilt handle simplifies positioning and engagement
- Designed for vertical lifting applications only
- Compact lightweight design for repetitive field use
- Suitable for precast concrete pipe installation
- Helps speed up utility and trenching operations
Applications
- Precast concrete pipe installation
- Sewer and drainage projects
- Stormwater infrastructure construction
- Utility pipeline installation
- Municipal water projects
- Civil and roadway construction
- Trenching and underground utility work
Product Operation
The Pipe Pickā¢ is designed for simple one-person operation during concrete pipe installation.
Operating Process
- Insert the Pipe Pickā¢ into the lifting hole of the concrete pipe
- Tilt the lifter to engage the beveled edge
- Lift and position the pipe into place
- Lower the load after positioning
- The counter-weighted arm automatically returns for easy removal
This system helps reduce lifting setup time while improving operator positioning and control during pipe placement operations.
Safety & Handling Advantages
Improved Worker Safety
The CPP Pipe Pickā¢ eliminates the need for workers to climb into or reach inside the pipe during lifting operations, helping reduce exposure to pinch points and suspended loads.
Faster Installation Cycles
The quick insert-and-lift design allows contractors to complete repetitive pipe placement operations more efficiently compared to traditional lifting methods.
Cleaner Pipe Handling
The lifting design helps minimize direct pipe contact and simplifies alignment during installation.
