The VacLift

Pipeline Plant Hire developed our patented VacLift attachment to improve the carrying capacity and effectiveness of pipe lifting. We design and manufacture vacuum lifts in Australia for Australian projects and can customise it to fit your needs.

The pipe assembly attachment

As part of our commitment to innovation, we also developed a pipe assembly attachment to improve the safety and efficiency of installing mechanically joined water pipes. By reducing the number of people required to install the pipe while easily doubling the amount of pipe installed in a shift, the Pipeline Plant Hire pipe assembly attachment provides significant cost and time savings to pipeline projects across Australia.
