IMPACT MOLING

We provide Impact Moling services at competitive rates. We currently have 2 unit of 75mm Terra Brand (Swiss Made) Impact Moles.

​

Impact moling is a trenchless technology that offers a less invasive & more efficient method for installing underground utilities, reducing the environmental impact & minimizing disruption to surface areas compared to traditional open-cut trenching method.

​

Impact moling, also known as horizontal directional drilling (HDD), is a trenchless method used for the installation of underground pipes, cables, conduits, or other utilities without the need for extensive excavation. It is commonly used for laying pipes & cables for utilities such as water supply, sewerage, gas, telecommunications, & electrical conduits.

​

Impact moling is advantageous as it minimizes disruption to the surface, reduces the need for extensive excavation & can often be completed more quickly than traditional trenching methods.

​

Impact moling involves a pneumatic hammer or mole that is propelled through the ground along a predetermined path. The mole creates a borehole by impacting & displacing the soil or other materials.

​

A launching pit & a receiving pit are typically excavated at the entry & exit points of the intended underground path. The mole, equipped with a piercing head, is inserted into the ground from the launching pit and directed toward the receiving pit.

​

As the mole moves forward, it displaces the soil or other materials by exerting high-frequency impacts. The displaced material is compacted around the borehole, creating a tunnel for the installation of utilities.

​

Impact moling is effective in various soil types, including sand, clay, gravel & some types of rock. However, it may encounter challenges in extremely hard or densely compacted soils.
