Impact moling is an ideal and cost effective trenchless technique for installing new water service pipes, cables and ducting with a diameter between 25mm and 110mm, and up to approximately 30m in length. Impact moling is ideal for sites where space is confined or restricted and keeps disturbance and cost to a minimum.A 'mole' is a torpedo-shaped device, which drives through soil using a percussive or hammer effect. The water pipe or cable is usually pulled in behind the mole.Impact moling works in straight lines-unlike horizontal directional drilling which can be guided-and requires both a launch pit and a catch pit. In the launch pit, the mole is lined up with the catch pit and then set in operation.mpact moling is ideal for sites where space is confined or restricted and keeps disturbance and cost to a minimum.
