Lower the Spindle, Raise the Standard.
The fully-configurable DD-240T delivers more power while lowering your operating costs and maximizing your value. This machine gets the job done with 30,000ft/lbs of rotary torque and 240,000lbs of thrust/pullback. And, it utilizes a low spindle center that minimizes the amount of exposed pipe in front of the drill. That saves you money by shortening the jobsite, cutting the cost of your drill pipe in half, and bringing down required wire splices by one-third.

Features
Productivity
- Hydraulic system utilizes radial piston motors on the rotary and thrust drives for smooth operation at all speeds.
- Thrust motors deliver superior control at lower speeds for effective rock boring and slow reaming.
- American Augers’ standard slip spindle that can be easily changed when needed, minimizing costly downtime.
- Full-length traveling wrenches to assist with stubborn tool joints and allow pulling tooling up on the drill frame.
- Low spindle-center allows the pipe to enter the ground closer to the drill when entering at low angles.
Reliability
- Simple system design maximizes durability and makes maintenance easier.
- Backspin-resistant motor is more reliable in difficult conditions that can cause other motors to fail.
- Redesigned metal engine enclosure prevents costly downtime by safeguarding critical components.
- Adjustable torque-limiter protects the machine and prevents costly downtime.
Safety
- Cab designed for open operator sightlines to maximize jobsite safety.
- Standard ZAPALERT electrical detection device alerts crew to the possibility of striking an underground powerline.
- Easily-accessible emergency shutdown switch at operator’s controls.
