The machines are ours, and so are the numbers.
No subbing the bore out and hoping it goes well. If you are working out whether a run is feasible, these are the figures that decide it.
Vermeer D24x40 S3 Navigator
The rig that puts the line in. 28,000 pounds of thrust and pullback covers most utility work in this region, and the 108 foot bend radius is what lets a bore get under a road and back up on the other side without kinking the product.



There is also a smaller Vermeer boring machine in the fleet for tight-access work and smaller line installs, for the jobs where the D24x40 will not fit or is more machine than the run needs.
