Looking to buy a thrust boring machine? You’re in the right place. In this article, I’ll walk you through what really matters when choosing the right machine—without the fluff. Save your time, your budget, and your nerves.
Not All Boring Machines Are the Same
There are tons of options online, but they don’t all do the same job. Some are made for small pipes, while others handle major infrastructure work. So first things first: know your needs.
What pipe size are you installing? What’s the soil like—loose or rocky? Your answers will shape the type of machine you need.
Hydraulic Power Is Key
The heart of any thrust boring machine is its hydraulic system. Are the cylinders strong enough? Is the pressure consistent? Are the hoses durable?
A solid hydraulic setup means smooth operation. A weak system? That’s downtime, repairs, and wasted money. Don’t skip this part.
Portability and Setup Time Matter
If you move between job sites often, portability is a huge plus. Heavy machines need cranes, which adds cost and delays.
Look for models that are easy to move and quick to set up. A “place it, align it, start it” machine saves serious time on site.
Don’t Chase the Cheapest Option
Price matters, of course. But going cheap can cost you more later. Think beyond the machine. Is spare part access easy? How’s the support team?
