Capable of drilling to depths exceeding 65 metres, the SR-45 supports bored, cased and CFA piling across a wide range of foundation applications. It can construct bored and cased piles up to 1,500 mm in diameter and CFA piles up to 1,000 mm. Its high torque output makes it particularly effective for installing and extracting large-diameter steel casings on technically demanding projects.
The SR-45 is commonly used for bored and CFA piling, temporary and permanent steel casing installation, and foundation works across transport, energy, commercial and marine infrastructure projects. Its self-erecting design enables efficient mobilisation between project sites while supporting high-productivity operations.
