Pneumatic Pipe Bursting Head Configurations
Front mounted bursting head combination

This combination facilitates manhole exits and reduces excavation costs. It is the preferred, and most common combination for size on size or one size upsizing pipe replacement projects in congested urban environments.

Front mounted bursting head / pipe pilot combination

Front mounted bursting heads can be combined with pipe pilots when bursting in sandy conditions, or when working with collapsed lines or heavy root intrusion. In these circumstances, this combination reduces pipe plowing and soil plugs, increasing production and bursting distance capability. Pipe pilots are also used for cast-iron bursts.

Front mounted bursting head / rear mounted pipe puller combination

When multiple upsizing is required, specially sized, front mounted bursting heads, combined with rear mounted pipe pullers, allow tools larger than then new pipe to be used. This is important when working in tough conditions, or when double or triple upsizing.

Front mounted bursting head / full body expander combination

This combination generates the "tractor effect." It effectively uses the tool's energy to help complete difficult or longer bursts, or to perform larger upsizing projects.
