Pneumatic Pipe Bursting

Subsurface-Utility-Header

Optimized for Sewer Applications

A pneumatic hammer is attached to an expander that fractures the pipe and displaces the broken shards while simultaneously pulling in a new pipe. A constant- tension cable winch set up in the adjacent pit or manhole keeps the hammer and expander centered and in-line with the host pipe. Manhole exiting can reduce overall excavation. Pipe replacement range of 6 to 36-inch fracturable pipe.
