Blue Diamond Tong Die 1/2″ x 1-1/4″ x 5″ | BJ & Power Tong Compatible
The 1/2″ x 1-1/4″ x 5″ Blue Diamond Tong Die is engineered for high-performance drilling operations requiring maximum gripping security. Its unique multi-point diamond tooth pattern provides an omni-directional “bite,” making it the ideal choice for BJ Type SDD/C/F/LF manual tongs, Power Casing Tongs, and Top Drive Torque Wrenches.
Description
Technical & Engineering Data
The Blue Diamond Advantage
Standard straight-tooth dies can occasionally slip under lateral loads. The Blue Diamond pattern eliminates this risk:
Omni-Directional Grip: Small, sharp diamond-shaped pyramids bite into the tubular surface from all angles, preventing both rotational and vertical slippage.
Precision Metallurgy: Forged from high-grade 8620 alloy steel with a specialized case-hardening process (58-62 HRC).
Controlled Depth of Bite: Designed to provide maximum torque transfer while maintaining a “low-marking” profile to protect expensive casing and drill pipe.
