Pneumatic Horizontal Boring Machine – Ø160 mm

The ALM 160 is designed for trenchless installation of pipes and cables. It creates straight underground bores without damaging the surface. No need to break asphalt or concrete.

Ideal for Larger Utility Lines

With a 160 mm body diameter and a bore length up to 1750 mm, ALM 160 is perfect for larger pipeline projects. It fits jobs that require wide and stable paths for gas, water, power, or data lines.

Powerful Performance with Air Pressure

This machine runs using compressed air. Its hammering motion pushes it forward through soil, forming a tunnel behind. The internal design keeps the movement strong and direct.

Built to Handle Rough Soil

ALM 160 is made from heat-treated alloy steel. It works well in mixed soils, including dense clay, soft rock, or sandy layers. The body resists wear and delivers long-term use.

Surface-Friendly Construction

This model helps avoid traffic disruption. You can bore under roads, rail lines, or buildings with no open trenches. It’s the right choice when the surface must stay untouched.

Easy to Use, Easy to Maintain

ALM 160 connects to a standard air compressor. It’s simple to operate and doesn’t need special skills. Maintenance is quick and low-cost, and spare parts are available.

A Reliable Tool for Underground Work

Whether it’s a city center or a rural job site, ALM 160 gets the job done safely and cleanly. It offers the best balance of size, power, and precision.
