Drilling It Down – Maximize Your Vertical Drilling Productivity

When all that stands between you and people driving by while texting or chomping on a burger is a Jersey barrier, you want it secured as well as possible. Drilling the holes to hold those concrete walls in place can be a tedious process, so we sought ways to make it easier to keep you and your crew safe.

That’s what fueled our development of the pneumatic 210 3-parapet wall drill. It maximizes vertical hole drilling in a variety of concrete applications, such as concrete retaining wall repair along shoulders of bridges and roadways; anchoring temporary traffic barriers and concrete barriers; or unique applications, such as concrete seawall repair.

Check out what it can do for your operation.

Productivity Boosting Features

The 3-parapet wall drill ensures continuous operations and optimal uptime with its innovative features. The patented roller-bearing feed system powers each drill automatically with individually tailored air pressure according to the material you’re drilling. This extends the service life of the drill bit because it helps prevent the bit from bouncing against the concrete due to inadequate pressure.

The multipoint oil injection system reduces wear on the drill motors by ensuring each drill motor has enough lubricating oil from the oil tank. This is more effective than a central oiling system, which doesn’t offer separate lubrication points.

Quick-release bit guides, which minimize downtime as the name suggests, can accommodate several bit styles, including one-piece whirl bits, two-piece H-thread bits and taper steel bits.

Easy to Use

The vertical concrete dowel drill adjusts easily to meet a variety of project specifications. Each can drill holes up to 2.5 inches in diameter and as deep as 3.5 feet to accommodate the height of parapet wall sections. The fully adjustable spacing between each drill allows you to tackle a range of drilling intervals. And, the drill requires airflow of just 300 cubic-feet per-minute to operate all three drill motors.

Since the drill is self-propelled, it maneuvers easily along the parapet wall without being pushed. Two vertical arms secure the drill to the parapet wall with two pneumatic tires and allow it to move freely. The drill’s tires support the unit’s quick repositioning capabilities, eliminating the tedious and time-consuming process of manually leveling and repositioning it after each movement.

The drill also maximizes productivity with its easy-to-use control panel. The panel detaches so it can be mounted on either side of the drill for superior visibility of the worksite. The simple, grouped controls provide efficient operations so you can focus on drilling and your surroundings for improved workflow and safety.

Safety and beyond

Attach a dust collection system to the drill for additional safety on the worksite. Using the system dramatically reduces dust exposure, which protects the environment and prevents dust from obscuring visibility of nearby drivers. The system also extends the life of the E-Z Drill units by removing dust that can stick to lubricants or wear nuts and bolts.

Construction applications require vertical concrete drilling, and you need equipment that gets the job done quickly and safely. The Yellow Drill will.
