Permalok® Quick Bore System
The Permalok® Quick Bore System is a comprehensive solution designed to optimize efficiency and savings in Pilot Tube Guided Auger Boring (PTGAB) applications. This customizable two-in-one package features a reusable temporary casing tool, the Permalok® CC (Cycle Casing) Joint, plus the final product pipe (Permalok® AB Joint steel casing, C200 steel carrier pipe, or reinforced concrete pipe).
The Quick Bore System capitalizes on the precision and accuracy of the pilot tube installation method, providing the added advantages of efficient upsizing and spoils removal, increased installation speed, and lower project construction costs.
System Components
Permalok® CC Joint (Cycle Casing)
The Permalok® CC Joint is a reusable steel casing tool engineered to effectively upsize pilot tube or auger bores to the final product casing size. The CC’s straightforward joint profile allows casing pieces to connect and advance with minimal force and no welding required, while also facilitating easy separation at the exit shaft for reuse in the next cycle.
In addition to its advantages as an upsizing tool, the Permalok® CC can also be used in front of coated and lined product pipe to prevent augers from damaging the product pipe lining. The CC system is fully reusable and requires no field fabrication, resulting in reduced installation time and significant project cost savings.
Final Product Pipe
The following product pipe options are available to complete the Quick Bore System:
• Permalok® AB Joint Steel Casing Pipe
• C200 Steel Carrier Pipe
• Reinforced Concrete Jacking Pipe
• Perfect Pipe (HDPE-Lined Trenchless RCP)
By consolidating these essential components into one solution from a single manufacturer, the Quick Bore System simplifies project planning, procurement, and installation. It guarantees product compatibility and performance, while offering the convenience of a dedicated point of contact for seamless service and support.
