Directional Drilling & Boring in Sacramento

Directional boring, also referred to as horizontal directional drilling (HDD), is a minimal impact trenchless method of installing underground utilities such as pipe, conduit, or cables in a relatively shallow arc or radius along a prescribed underground path using a surface-launched drilling rig.

Our directional drilling and boring machine is constructed with heavy-duty, commercial-grade steel, the unit can pull in new pipe of up to 16 inches in diameter with 100 tons of pullback force. For power, the pipe-bursting system uses a 60-horsepower Cummins engine, which is fully enclosed, fully accessible, and, at 83 dBA, not too hard on the ears. Load-sensing hydraulics allows for automatic downshifting when a load is introduced, and higher speeds during makeup and breakout.
