Drift Pin Ratchet Tool

The “Must Have” Job Site Tool for connecting Ductmate or TDC/F sections

Duro Dyne 9″ Magnetic Drift Pin Ratchet Tool

 

 

There’s a critical stage of the Ductmate connection that’s done on the job site in a less controlled environment than the confines of a Duct Fab shop: aligning and connecting the 2 mating gasketed duct sections. Though it’s usually done on the ground and then lifted up, the process can be challenging because those 4 corners of the duct need to be lined up with the mating duct. 



It is important to make sure the duct is aligned before the Butyl Gasket touches the mating section as it’s challenging to take apart.

Once the Butyl touches the mating section there’s no going back without considerable effort.

A drift pin assists in this Alignment
4 Drift Pins are used for aligning the Corners; a Ratchet tool is used to tighten the Nuts and Bolts on the 4 Corners. 
 
Of course these tools, especially the Drift Pins, are easily misplaced or dropped so there’s often more time spent in looking for tools than actually using them.
 

Would a combination Ratchet and Drift Pin Tool allow you to use one less tool?

 
Duro Dyne’s High Visibility Yellow combination Drift Pin with Ratchet is not only 2 tools in one but it’s also MAGNETIC so when not in use just place on the duct wall.
