Minnich Manufacturing Redesigns its A-1C Dowel Pin Drill at Affordable Price
Minnich Manufacturing has redesigned its A-1C dowel pin drill to offer concrete contractors the same performance at a more affordable price point.
“We’re excited to offer a quality drill for customers who need a basic option," said Rob Minnich, president and chief marketing officer of Minnich Manufacturing. "We’re proud of our higher-end products, but some road-building contractors simply don’t need all the bells and whistles that accompany them. The A-1CL is for them. The Minnich quality our customers know and love is still there, just with fewer features than the original A-1C.”
The A-1CL dowel pin drill is a lightweight, on-slab, high-production drill that offers horizontal, vertical and 35-degree stitch and skewed drilling positions. The drill is maneuverable but does not include a formal steering system. The A-1CL nomenclature refers to its lightweight design, weighing in at 350 pounds.
The A-1CL reaches a maximum drill depth of 18 inches with an under-collar drill steel length of 24 inches. The A-1CL requires 92.2 SCFM and 120 PSIG of pneumatic power. All specs included correspond with the 48-inch model. Once available, the A-1CL will come in four different drill widths, 48 inches, 36 inches, 30 inches and 24 inches.
The optional Minnich dust collection system can be mounted directly to all Minnich dowel drill units, including the A-1CL for reduced debris on the jobsite and in compliance with OSHA regulations.
Concrete dowel pin drilling is an integral part of road construction projects. For these jobs to stay on time and under budget, the dowel pin drilling component must move along efficiently and safely. Minnich's A-1CL dowel pin drills offer a fast, accurate, safe alternative to hand drilling and at a lower price point than many other on-slab options, helping contractors ensure that complex projects run smoothly.
