This innovative pile driver is designed to overcome obstacles such as low overhead clearance and narrow passageways, as well as eliminate the need for peripheral equipment to be used in the piling operation.
The Sonic Side Grip range from HMC can handle pile up to 50′ long, H-beams, pipe pile and wood pile. There is a model to suit every application.
