B51
The B51 is the next evolution of classic Mobile Drill power and versatility. Delivering up to 9,876 ft-lbs of torque, the B51 is available in both track- and truck-mounted configurations, making it ideal for the 100–125 ft hollow-stem auger market.
Designed with a compact footprint mechanical drive unit, the B51 is perfectly suited for the geotechnical industry, offering performance without sacrificing maneuverability.
At the heart of the B51 is its power shift transmission, allowing operators to shift gears — and even change direction — without stopping rotation. This innovative feature provides unmatched control of the drill string, especially when working in stiff or sticky clays, resulting in faster, safer production in the toughest conditions.
