Hydraulic
B46
The most practical multi-purpose under CDL drilling rig on the market - built for maximum uptime and easy mobility whether you’re tackling geotechnical exploration, environmental sampling, or asphalt coring. The 4 speed heavy duty hydraulic top head provides the operator with 5417 ft-lbs of torque in low gear and over 700 rpm in high gear. The real added value is the way the operator accesses the bore hole to utilize hoists and the automatic hammer. Using the in and out slide base for these operations allows for the seamless integration of a hydraulic top head drill into a mechanical drill fleet
