HDD, or Horizontal Directional Drilling, is an advanced technique for installing underground pipes and conduits without breaking ground surfaces. This minimizes disruptions such as road closures or detours.
With increasing investment in underground infrastructure, HDD is a rapidly growing technology that requires high-quality pumps for various applications.
Gorman-Rupp provides the right pumps for the job. HDD drilling uses a specially formulated drilling fluid called bentonite, a clay-like substance that lubricates drilling and reaming processes while facilitating the installation of pipes and cables.
Gorman-Rupp pumps are essential at both the entry and exit pits of HDD operations. Medium head pumps return bentonite to the recycling plant, while high-head booster pumps transport bentonite over long distances from the exit pit.
HDD applications push both equipment and operators to their limits. Pumps must resist abrasion, handle varying loads and intermittent flows, and efficiently process high-viscosity drilling slurries.
That’s why HDD operators rely on Gorman-Rupp. Our HDD bentonite pumps are a proven solution for these demanding applications.
Gorman-Rupp HDD bentonite pumps are available with a modern, eco-friendly Stage 5 diesel engine for quick deployment on-site or an emission-free electric drive. Whatever your requirements, Gorman-Rupp has the right HDD bentonite pump for you.
Reliable, efficient, and easy to maintain- Gorman-Rupp self-priming pumps handle liquids containing air, solids, and debris while keeping maintenance hassle-free. Thanks to automatic repriming, they continue running even if the suction line is completely empty. Their above-ground installation ensures easy servicing, eliminating the need for confined space entry.
Designed for demanding conditions, Gorman-Rupp dry-prime pumps automatically remove air from the suction line, allowing for immediate pumping without manual priming. They deliver high flow rates, large solids handling, strong suction power, and energy-efficient operation- ideal for tough applications that require reliability and quick deployment.
For nearly a century, Gorman-Rupp has been the name industries trust for durable, reliable pumping systems. From construction to municipal projects, Gorman-Rupp delivers pumps designed to perform under the toughest conditions. With Gorman-Rupp, you’re not just buying a pump, you’re getting a solutions partner dedicated to your success.
