These machines are the standard for the pipelining industry, increasing efficiency on the job site. Thompson Machinery carries a line of new Cat® pipelayers for sale. Our team is here to help you find the right pipelayer for your company.
Where to Use Pipelayers
Pipelayers are crucial pieces of equipment for all pipeline-related construction projects. They support heavy loads of pipeline material and mechanically lay it in position. You can use these pipelayers in infrastructure and construction jobs, including any crude oil, natural gas, carbon capture, storm sewers, drains and sanitary sewer projects. You may also utilize a pipelayer to lay pipes, connecting homes and buildings to a local water grid.
