Why The MiniTrencher SiBore SB215 Is Worth The Investment
This isn't just a micro boring drill, it's powered by a proven Honda GX35 gas engine, giving landscapers and contractors dependable 1-in. boring capability for remote job sites or off-grid locations where charging a battery isn't practical.
The SB215 specifically addresses the needs of landscapers, sprinkler system installers, plumbers, and electrical contractors who need 1-in. bores for smaller conduit and irrigation lines and prefer the reliability of a gas engine that refuels in seconds rather than waits for a charge.
Gas Power That's Always Ready To Go. The multi-position Honda GX35 engine bores 1-in. x 24-ft. holes in under five minutes and refuels instantly with gasoline, meaning there's no downtime waiting for a battery to charge between jobs on remote or high-volume work sites.
