Asphalt Drilling Machine: Electric Core Drill for Asphalt and Concrete
The Electric Core Drill like other core drills can be used for a variety of drilling jobs besides pavement coring. The column rotates 180 ° horizontally so you can place the drill bit exactly where you want it. The super-duty 2 speed (450/900rpm) 3.5hp motor and carriage can be removed or reattached without moving the unit for easy core snapping and adding extension rods. 10in (254mm) wide wheeled base has a vacuum anchor to hold solid on smooth pavement or floors. Includes oilless vacuum pump, filter, hose and quick connections.
Easy set up, fast drilling and low bit wear for low cost per core. Drills have bit capacities up to 8in (203mm) diameter. Call for larger, trailer mounted rigs for bits up to 16in (406mm). Quick disconnect fittings for water supply. Diamond coring bits sold separately.
