Concrete Coring Equipment

Applications include sampling concrete pavements, slabs, structures, cutting, and trimming of concrete specimens in sample preparation for testing. The equipment can also be used for sampling asphalt.

• Concrete Core Drill Machines are powered by gasoline or electricity for the core sampling of concrete and asphalt. They offer fast drilling and low-bit wear.
• Concrete Diamond Core Drill Bits provide optimum performance in wet core drilling of reinforced concrete and asphalt. The bits are available in an open-head or closed-head design. Models range in coring size from 2 to 6.25in (51 to 159mm). Asphalt Diamond Coring Bits are also available.
• Expander Sets are required for use with open-head coring bits. Expander sets are available in sizes to match bit diameters and can be used over and over.
• Core Retrieval extractors and tongs extract intact 4 and 6in (102 and 152mm) core samples from drilled pavements and structures. Core Extractors are more compact and feature a locked-in grip. Core Retrieval Tongs have longer handles and offer more leverage for core extraction.
• 3gal Pressurized Water Tank supplies Core Drills pressurized water manually to cool core drill bits and flush out cuttings during drilling.
• Core Bit Strap Wrench removes or attaches diamond core bits from the spindle of the Core Drills without damaging the equipment.
• Masonry Saws are available in a compact and portable design or a heavy-duty model. They can perform wet cutting and trimming of concrete, asphalt, or masonry specimens during sample preparation for testing. The portable saw has a 5in (127mm) cut depth, while the heavy-duty model cut depth is 8in (203mm).
