BORE SPACERS

Bore spacers are used to support various arrays of ducts within a bore casing until it is filled with grout. They ensure accurate alignment and positioning of the ducts, making it easy to identify utilities for repairs or servicing.

MORE ABOUT BORE SPACERS

Bore spacers are used in Directional Drilling or Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD). This method is often employed to run utilities, such as power, telecom, and fiber optics, beneath obstacles like roads, lakes, and large structures. Being trenchless, it minimizes the impact on the soil.

Imagine contractors installing utilities under major highways. They want to avoid stopping traffic, tearing up the road, installing the utilities, and then replacing the road. For structures like lakes, this method allows them to install utilities underneath rather than through, above, or around them.
