THE NEW GRUNDODRILL 28N

THE FIRST OF ITS KIND IN SOUTH AFRICA

Rescue Rod is one of the leading providers and experts in the use of horizontal directional drilling (HDD) as a means of installing piping, conduit and cabling underground in Southern Africa.

Adaptable and able to drill though rock. 

Drilling up to 800mm Diameters.

Drilling up to 0.5Km in Distance.

Trenchless Technology is widely-used in the civil engineering sector. The trenchless revolution share, compared to open-cut excavations, is ever increasing due to the underground installation technology and renewal of pipelines becoming ever more cost effective than the now outdated methods previously used.

These advantages are due to labour intensive excavation and re-instatement work being reduced to the absolute minimum. The advantages of less intrusive time on site is particularly noticeable when installing property service connections and the crossing of highly frequented roads, rivers, railways, etc.

Trenchless installation protects the environment. This effectively means minimal impact on existing above ground conditions; far lower impact / discomfort on the community. Fewer construction vehicles completing works much faster means little to no negative impact on traffic conditions as well as less noise, (CO2) and fine dust particles.
