The affordable, easy to use Bore-X Hand Held Tool lets you install pipe or conduit under sidewalks, driveways or roads faster with less effort. Your productivity will increase with the use of the Bore-X Tool! It pays for itself on the 1st job. The lightweight and small size allows boring in tight spaces, impossible for larger machines. Quick to set up, prep time is usually about 15 minutes, and boring normally proceeds at an average speed of 1 foot per minute. Compact and affordable, you can keep a Bore-X Tool on every truck. We recommend using the tool on a 2x4 so you can level or angle your bore as needed and to keep the tool out of the dirt. The BORE-X Tool is an amazing lightweight tool that has made underground boring easier for thousands of people. Originally designed to help landscapers get their jobs done faster with less effort, the BORE-X Tool is now also used by electricians, plumbers, pool repair, utility contractors, security system installers, and more.
BORE-X vs Competitors
The BORE-X Tool System is built on a 75+ year old proven tool design, with several engineered enhancements to improve performance and reliability. While the BORE-X Tool System aligns with the core functional concepts of our competitors, we have strengthened the BORE-X Tool Design by improving key component raw materials, increasing both durability and service life. We have also minimized the common issue of drive-shaft seizure within the end caps—an issue frequently reported with earlier models by other manufacturers.
Every tool is serialized for full traceability. Additionally, we offer serialized & color tool bodies to distinguish BORE-X Tools from competing brands and to assist customers with quick visual identification—whether on the counter, in the field, or within inventory systems.
Our boring bits feature a 4-wing cutting design, providing a more rugged and extended-life solution compared to the older two- or three-wing designs. This New Design delivers superior boring efficiency and improved longevity, especially in challenging soil conditions.
What truly sets BORE-X apart is not just our engineering advancements, but our unwavering commitment to delivering an exceptional customer experience. We value user feedback related to performance, handling, and design features, as it plays an essential role in continuous product advancement. Our goal is to provide a reliable, accessible, and customer-focused solution.
