Casing Rotators

Casing Rotators use clockwise or counterclockwise rotational force to install casing in drilled shafts, turning a full 360 degrees.

A rotator can be used when ground conditions are so unstable that drilled holes cannot safely be stabilized with drilling slurry or when loose ground must be controlled. They can also be used for hard soil and obstructions, including solid rock, slanted rock, rock layers or boulders.

Rotators have a self-traveling capability with optional crawler tracks and power pack deck. As well as, a counterbalance function ensuring stable casing drilling conditions

We offer six rotator models with varying diameters to work on drilling projects from 800-4,000mm.

There are additional applications and benefits of a utilizing a rotator including:  removing existing concrete piles, cutting through concrete in secant piling, and penetrating inclined rock layers or large boulders.
