Wellhead Type 13 3/8 IN Casing Tong

TYPE 13 3/8'' CASING TONGS – Premium Manual Casing Tools for API Wellhead Systems

Engineered for precision and durability, the TYPE 13 3/8'' CASING TONGS meet stringent API 7K standards, offering unmatched performance in demanding downhole operations. These manual tongs are specifically designed for securing and rotating 13 3/8-inch casing strings during drilling and completion processes, making them a critical component of modern Wellhead Tool system. Whether you're working on offshore platforms or onshore rig, this robust solution ensures reliable torque application without compromising safety or efficiency.

The API 7K Type 13 3/8 IN Manual Tongs provide a standardized mechanical interface that aligns with industry best practices for casing handling. As part of the broader category of 13 3/8'' Type Manual Tongs for API Wellhead Tools, these tongs deliver consistent gripping force across various pipe diameters within the specified range. Their ergonomic design reduces operator fatigue during extended use, while high-strength alloy components ensure longevity even under harsh environmental conditions such as high pressure, temperature fluctuations, and corrosive exposure.

Key features include hardened jaws with replaceable inserts to maintain optimal contact with casing surfaces, anti-slip handles for secure grip in wet or oily environments, and a modular frame structure that allows easy maintenance and part replacement. The tongs are manufactured using heat-treated steel and precision machining techniques, ensuring compliance with API 7K specifications and minimizing the risk of thread damage or misalignment during make-up and break-out procedures.

These manual tongs are ideal for applications involving casing running, cementing, and workover operations where controlled torque is essential. They integrate seamlessly into existing Rig setups and support both vertical and angled well configurations. Designed for operators who prioritize reliability over automation, the 13 3/8'' Type Manual Tongs for API Wellhead Tools offer a cost-effective alternative to powered alternatives without sacrificing performance or safety.

Users consistently report improved operational efficiency and reduced downtime when using these tongs. Many cite the intuitive design and minimal training requirements as key advantages, especially in remote or resource-constrained locations. Operators appreciate the balance between hand-powered control and sufficient torque capacity—particularly valuable when working with heavy casings or in environments where electrical power is unreliable.

Common questions include whether the tongs are compatible with different casing grades (yes, they support API Grade E, X, G, and higher), if they require special maintenance (routine cleaning and lubrication of moving parts is recommended), and how they compare to hydraulic alternatives (manual versions offer greater portability and lower operational costs). Some users also inquire about certifications—these tongs are certified to API 7K standards and come with full traceability documentation for compliance audits.

We also offer various sizes and models of Manual Tong and Power Tong. Not only Wellhead tools, but also Wellhead Equipment, Pressure Control Equipment, Mud Pump and other high-quality products are available.
