Grundomat® Mole/Piercing Tools
Grundomat pneumatic piercing tools have been providing accurate horizontal bores beneath
roads, railways, and landscaping across North America and around the world for nearly 45
years. Water, gas, sewer and electrical industries have all benefited from this work horse
of trenchless technology. Minimal operating space is required and the tool serves as a
complement, and in many situations an economical alternative to, larger, more expensive
directional drilling equipment.

What It Does
Grundomat can perform accurate horizontal bores from 50 to 150
feet in length. The Grundomat can be used in all displaceable soils:
sand, loam and even gravel and is easily configured to pull in a
wide variety of new pipe materials.
How It Works
Compressed air repeatedly propels the piston against the rear of
the chisel head assembly. This first compresses the pre-tensioned
steel spring which forces the chisel head
assembly forward independently of the
main casing to provide a pilot bore.
Then, the same continuous force thrusts
the main casing ahead. With decades of
proven performance, the Grundomat’s patented stepped-cone head
consistently provides accurate results.

GRUNDOMAT Hammers Straight Ahead of Conventional Tools
Fixed head “conventional” piercing tools have a tendency to take the line of least resistance
when encountering difficult soils and obstacles in their bore path. When they hit an obstruction,
they’re easily knocked off-course... resulting in a failed bore.
The reciprocating stepped-cone chisel head action of the Grundomat tool is unique because
it hammers away at solid obstacles. This two-stroke action means that the piston’s impact is
concentrated on the reciprocating tool head for optimum boring performance.
Features
• Reverse Made Easy: 5- through 7-inch diameter Grundomats are equipped with a new
patented reverse mechanism. You can easily reverse the Grundomat during the bore, by
adjusting a lever on the lubricator control system. There is no need to turn the air hose or
stop the tool.
• Easily launched by hand or from cradle
• Patented reciprocating stepped-cone chisel head
• Minimal tool setup for fast, profitable work
• Durable construction means little maintenance
