Repairing or replacing the host pipe by fragmenting the existing pipe and installing a new pipe of equal or larger diameter in its place.
This Trenchless method was invented in Europe early 80's to replace or increase the capacity of the aging sewer, gas and water pipelines and be able to face the rising needs of urban areas where population growth is a problem.
Find below a Lateral Pipe Burster ideal to replace or upsize the houses connections to the main lines, and a Hydraulic Rod Winch Pipe Burster ideal to replace the main lines and larger pipes.
Pipe bursting can save contractors and pipeline owners a considerable time and money when it comes to replacing water, gas, sewerage pipelines to residential and industrial areas.
Replace old and broken pipes for water, gas and sewer. Ideal for renewing house conections in tight and difficult access places. Install or upsize pipes up to 200 mm in diameter with our range of pipe bursting cones. Very economical and environmental friendly solution.

The rehabilitation and replacement of service laterals or house connections has traditionally been a difficult, expensive and time-consuming job, but a recent explosion in lateral pipe bursting has changed the way contractors approach lateral replacement. Inherently the pipe bursting method is well suited for lateral pipe replacement. It helps minimize disruption and represents a fast and effective way to replace deteriorating lateral lines, particularly in built up and difficult to access areas.
Static pipe bursting equipment come to the forefront in recent years. Our 40T pipe burster can help municipalities and home owners deal with lateral pipe replacement easily and cost effectively and keeps disruption to a minimum.
Our static pipe bursting machine is specifically designed for lateral bursting and can replace house connections up to 30m in length. Our system is lightweight and includes everything needed for pipe bursting operations. This includes bursting heads or bursting cones for 100 and 150 mm pipe, winch chaine and hydraulic power pack.
Our new static pipe burster can negotiate turns and bends up to 45°. Because the system is hydraulically powered, no air compressor is required.

It is fast and powerful Trenchless Technology Pipe Bursting, Pipe Replacement System for a range of underground services including water, sewer and gas pipeline. The pipe bursting method is one of the most efficient replacement service and renovation method available today. Our pipe bursting system utilises a hydraulic rod winch, couples to a silenced diesel power pack.
Winch rods are fed into the existing service to be replaced, then a pipe cracking head is attached to the rods and the new pipe is pulled into the ground using the power of the winch.
As the pipe bursting head is pulled into the ground, it splits the old service and simultaneously provides an annulus for the new pipe to be installed into. Click here to watch the video on Youtube.
Fast Installation - This Trenchless technology pipe bursting, pipe replacement system is capable of replacing up to 100 meters of pipe in approximately 35 minutes. Sizes from 50mm through to 300mm diameter can be installed using this method. Pipe upsizing is also possible in certain conditions.
Rugged and Reliable - The machine is designed to withstand tough Australian conditions. An extra large oil tank and dual acting hydraulic pumps ensures reliability of the power supply.
Operator Safety - Pendant control allows the workers to operate the Pipe Burster out of the pit while the cracking is taking place, ensuring operator safety at all times. Coupled with the unique double jaw system, which keeps constant pressure on the cracking head eliminating whip and spring back whilst the machine is in operation.
Powerful - The double pump hydraulic system driven by a reliable Kubota engine produces a fast and efficient installation method.
Quiet - Coupled with the silenced hydraulic power pack and the quiet, smooth operation of the winch, pipe bursting lends itself for use in noise sensitive areas.
Simple to operate - Tapered threaded rods, 180 degree knuckle joints, floating double jaws and pendant controls makes this pipe bursting machine extremely ergonomic and user friendly.
Small Footprint - Due to the very compact size of the pipe bursting winch bed, smaller pits can be dug with less excavation. This means it is required to carry out less restoration and overall job costs are generally reduced.
