TT Technologies releases Grundomat piercing tool
The Grundomat piercing tool from TT Technologies bores consistently on-target time after time. It is constructed from durable, hardened alloy steel and reliable machined components for maximum power and precision.
Grundomat tools are also equipped with an advanced reversing system, as well as an in-line lubrication system.
The tool serves as a compliment and, in many situations, an economical alternative to larger, more expensive directional drilling equipment.
Especially suitable for gas distribution applications, the Grundomat’s reciprocating stepped-cone chisel-head ensures high impact accuracy. The chisel-head action of the Grundomat tool is unique because it hammers away at solid obstacles. This two-stroke action means that the piston's impact is concentrated on the reciprocating tool head for optimum boring performance.
The Grundomat is available in 16 models ranging from 1¾-inch diameter to 7-inch diameter, for horizontal boring distances of 50 feet to 150 feet. Basic and deluxe packages are available and Grundomat is easily configured to pull in a wide variety of new pipe materials.
