The
Advantages of IBI Wet Lubricated Boring Systems over dry boring
systems are staggering:
The cost
of the machine and cutting tools are some 55% LOWER than dry
bore machines and auger costs.
The cost of trenching
and clean up afterwards is SUBSTANTIALLY below dry bore.
Costly Augers
in various sized so not have to be stocked. The same drill
bits and drill stem are used for ALL size bores in the IBI
system.
The amount and
size of support equipment needed for IBI equipment is substantially
smaller and less costly than that used by dry bore.
The IBI equipment
and process is five to six times FASTER than dry bore.
The LOSS OF EXPENSIVE
CASING IS AVOIDED. Should the pilot hole miss connections
you can move machine to receiving pit and drill back until
you connect with the first bore.
Our customers
estimate that the Total cost, per foot, to bore using IBI
equipment is 76% cheaper than dry bore for the same size bore.
