FAQ: HORIZONTAL CASING SYSTEMS

What is Horizontal Hammer Drilling? (HZ-Drilling)

Horizontal Hammer Drilling is used to drill horizontal casings. These casings will be used for example to enable trenchless operations. These trenchless operations can include for example drainage pipe installation or cable  installations. 

Benefits of trenchless Horizontal Hammer Drilling?

  • With Horizontal Hammer Drilling, it is possible to install casings horizontally without causing interruptions for traffic. This is highly advantageous for example in high-traffic areas. 
  • After casing is installed, for example a drainage pipe or a cable can be installed easily below a road.

What is the difference in HDD (horizontal directional drilling) and Horizontal Hammer Drilling?

  • In horizontal hammer drilling, a DTH-hammer is used to create the impact energy of casing advancement.  HDD does not have a DTH-hammer.
  • Horizontal hammer drilling makes it possible to drill into tough soils, bedrock and boulders. HDD is for soft soils, such as clay and soft sand. 

What tools does Tri-Mach provide for Horizontal Hammer Drilling?

  • We provide multiple services for horizontal drilling:
    • Horizontal DTH-Hammers
    • Horizontal Pilot Bits
    • Horizontal Ring Bits
    • Casing Shoes
    • Horizontal drilling rods
    • Adapters

Why is it important to have the best possible ring bit?

  • Horizontal ring bit is used for multiple drilled holes. In most cases, it can be recovered from the other side of the pit. This means that investing in the best quality ring bit possible is always beneficial. More meters, less problems. 
  • The best possible horizontal ring bit can also be maintained. This is important -especially in large diameter ring bits. Ring bit maintenance provides additional lifetime and more meters than conventional ones.
