Distance of Installation: 180 feet Maximum Pulling Force on Pipe: 1,870 pounds Reamer Diameter: 6 inch Soil Conditions: Rock, Roots, Sand, Clay
Far Left: At the entrance pit, Bore-Gard PVC pipe is being pulled into the 6 inch reamed hole through challenging tree roots, rock, clay and sandy soil. Left: Facing the entrance pit overlooking a creek 6 ft. below road level. Maximum depth of 16 ft. was reached below the creek bed. Space restrictions required the pipe to be added every 20 feet of the bore. The simple joint design enabled quick assembly to easily keep pace with pulling of the reamer.
Left: Facing the drilling rig (top left) overlooking the creek. Directional drilling and Bore-Gard pipe was the least cost option for this varied-terrain 180 ft. bore. Trenching was not an option. Above Right: A look at the 180 ft. span of the bore from far left to far right (drill rig) of the picture.
