Kelco Tubing Tong Dies are high-tensile replacement dies for K-20, K-25, and K-30 manual tongs.

API 7K certified for reliable service in high-torque workover operations.
Description
Kelco Tubing Tong Dies are critical for maintaining the safety and integrity of tubing strings. These specialized dies provide the aggressive friction needed to make-up or break-out pipe joints. Specifically, they fit Kelco and CDI Style K-20, K-25, and K-30 Tubing Tongs. Because these tongs utilize a unique wrap-around geometry, our Kelco Tubing Tong Dies ensure nearly 300 degrees of pipe contact. Consequently, they distribute torque evenly and prevent the “crimping” of thin-walled production tubing.
Pan Industries manufactures every Kelco Tubing Tong Die from premium forged 8620 alloy steel. This material offers superior grain structure and impact resistance. Furthermore, each die undergoes precision heat treatment to reach a surface hardness of 58-62 HRC. Therefore, the teeth stay sharp through thousands of cycles, even on hardened pipe scale. Additionally, our dies are 100% interchangeable with OEM part numbers for seamless replacement.
Engineering Benefits of Kelco Series Dies
Minimized Pipe Damage: The multi-point contact design prevents localized crushing.
Forged Metallurgy: Forged 8620 steel eliminates the risk of brittle fracture.
Precision Fitment: Perfectly machined to sit flush in K-series jaw pockets.
Safety Standards: All dies are manufactured to exceed API Spec 7K requirements.
