Piercing Tools: Ditch Witch
The model PT30 piercing tool has 70 pounds of impact force per blow at 480 blows per minute.
The 3.25-inch diameter PT30 offers three optional replaceable tool heads designed for specific soil types enable the PT30 to bore through virtually any soil with minimal deflection from underground obstacles; soil-specific tool heads also reduce wear on the tool. Changing direction to dislodge the tool is as easy as flipping a lever; air flow to the tool can remain on, increasing the speed of the bore. Available bolt-on expander expands the tool’s diameter to 4.25 inches for larger installations. 800.654.6481, www.ditchwitch.com
