Augers

SB augers are suitable for loosening water-bearing cohesive and non-cohesive soils, whilst SBF augers or progressive augers are suitable for breaking and ripping medium-hard rock.

The augers are available in a wide variety of configurations:

  • With flat teeth or round shank chisels

  • With wear protection on auger flights

  • Single or double start type

  • With or without pilot bit

  • With or without collar ring

  • Diameter range 520 mm – 2500 mm

Drilling buckets

KB drilling buckets are suitable for drilling in water-bearing cohesive and non-cohesive soils, whilst KBF augers are designed for breaking and ripping dense soils up to medium-hard rock. For emptying the bucket, the hinged revolving bottom gate can be opened automatically.  A vent tube prevents the creation of a vacuum as the bucket is withdrawn from the borehole.

The drilling buckets are available in a wide variety of configurations:

  • With flat teeth or round shank chisels

  • Single or double start type

  • Different pilot bits

  • With or without collar ring

  • Diameter range 520 mm – 2500 mm

Core barrels

KB drilling buckets are suitable for drilling in water-bearing cohesive and non-cohesive soils, whilst KBF augers are designed for breaking and ripping dense soils up to medium-hard rock. For emptying the bucket, the hinged revolving bottom gate can be opened automatically.  A vent tube prevents the creation of a vacuum as the bucket is withdrawn from the borehole.

The drilling buckets are available in a wide variety of configurations:

  • Tungsten carbide pins or weld-on teeth

  • AS weld-on blocks

  • Round shank chisels

  • In special cases also with roller bits

  • Diameter range 520 mm – 2500 mm

Belling bucket

In stable soil formations, the bearing capacity of bored piles can be increased significantly by enlarging the base area of each pile. Belling buckets with retractable cutter arms are used for this purpose.

Via an opening mechanism inside the belling tool, the toothed cutting arms are pushed outwards by vertical pressing of the Kelly bar.
