Belling Tools or Under Reamer
Belling buckets are used to increase the size of the pile, thereby increasing the bearing capacity or uplift capacity. Cutting arms with teeth are opened mechanically by applying vertical force with the kelly bar onto the opening mechanism of the belling bucket. Available in sizes up to 20 feet (6 m) in diameter.
Champion Kelly Bars and Extensions
Champion Kelly bars are made in single, double, or triple telescoping types, in square or round cross-sections or combination or both. They are also made in different alloys, heat treat conditions, and in many sizes and lengths.
Sectional Casing
Sectional casing is available with either lightweight or heavy duty watertight casing. Lightweight casing is for loose, dry soil, typically at the surface of a hole.
Champion’s heavy-duty sectional casing uses Leffer joints and is used with top-drive rotary rigs or with a casing oscillator and rotator. Sectional casing is available in diameters up to 12 feet (3.6 m).
Tremie Pipes and Racks
Tremie pipes, used for placing concrete below water level, are available in various sizes. Accompanying racks are also available, to stock pipes and make it easy to move from one jobsite to another.
Soil Mixing Tools
Champion Equipment Company makes a suite of soil mixing tools that mix the soil and inject grout in-situ.
Standard mixing tool blades overmix the soil near the shaft in order to just adequately mix the outer portion of the element.
Our patent pending design redefines soil mixing with it’s sweft tip paddles which promote efficient 3-dimensional soil mixing with better uniformity and productivity.
Rock Picker
For drill rigs with limited height below stub, our pancake augers are designed with a tapered bottom to drill and ream holes in tough conditions. They are useful to extract boulders even with reamer arms.
This tool is often equipped with conical bits, to cut rock or extract boulders.
Expansion Reamer Blades
We also offer a broad range of bucket expansion reamers, which can be incorporated into auger buckets to facilitate cutting holes larger in diameter than the actual bucket size. The expandable reamer blades can be manufactured to swing-out or slide-out, depending on the specific needs of the drilling application.
