Used BSP Hydraulic Impact Hammers – Piling Broker

The BSP DX-RT range of hydraulic piling hammers have been developed to meet the needs of Railway Infrastructure projects.  It’s design allows quick and simple mounting onto the stick of a wide range of  small Road-Rail excavators (aprox. 30T class machines).  The hammer mounts directly to the excavators bucket linkage and the attachment allows for fast erection from horizontal transport position to a vertical plumb working position.  Further side plumbing adjustment is possible to give a hammer position ±5° of vertical to deal with the cant of rail lines.  During piling the hammer is guided or crowded in the vertical position by the attachment mechanism.

As standard the hammer is fitted with a 800mm diameter drive cap which is well suited to the common application of driving 610mm (24”) dia steel tube piles used in the construction of rail electrification stanchions.   It also allows for other common pile sizes such as 457mm (18”), 406mm (16”) and 305mm (12”) steel tubes.  Other pile types and sizes can also be driven by fitting alternative drive cap options.

A typical high production piling train will use an excavator mounted side grip vibrator to place, pitch and part drive the pile.  The powerful DX-RT pile driver with its rapid blow rate is then used to drive the pile to the desired level, quickly and efficiently.
