HOLDER

HOLDER – Stable Tool Support Frame for Efficient Drilling Operations

The Holder is an essential support component used during bored pile operations to secure, align, and stabilize key drilling elements such as casing pipes, augers, and tooling extensions. Designed for use with leading rotary drilling rigs including BAUER, LIEBHERR, SOILMEC, SANY, and XCMG, the Holder enhances safety and precision by preventing misalignment and unintentional movement during tool changes or setup procedures.

Engineered from high-tensile structural steel, the Holder provides a secure resting or guide point on the job site, especially when heavy tools are being lifted, disconnected, or temporarily stored. The wide footprint and reinforced brackets ensure it remains stable under high tool loads, while the central cut-out and guiding slots provide compatibility with a variety of rig configurations.

Whether it’s for urban foundation jobs, infrastructure projects, or marine piling works, the Holder is the simple yet critical accessory that keeps the drilling process organized, safe, and efficient.

What is a HOLDER in Bored Piling?

The Holder is a ground-level or platform-mounted steel frame used to hold or guide drilling tools when they are not in use or during alignment with a rig’s Kelly bar or rotary drive system. It acts like a rest or stabilizing frame that minimizes the risk of tipping, swinging, or uncontrolled movement.

This tool is especially useful when setting up long, heavy drilling pipes or casings that require precise vertical alignment before lifting. Its robust construction also allows it to endure harsh jobsite conditions such as mud, vibration, and high-impact loading.

Technical Specifications

• Material: High-strength rectangular profile steel

• Finish: Industrial-grade powder coating (typically yellow for visibility)

• Center Opening: Precision-cut slot/hole for casing or tool insertion

• Side Slots: Elongated openings for lifting hooks or bolt-on support extensions

• Leg Base: Stabilized with wide crossbars to resist tipping under uneven loads

• Weight Capacity: Custom-engineered to support tools up to 2–3 tons

• Paint Finish: UV- and weather-resistant yellow coating for durability and visibility

Key Features of HOLDER

• Heavy-Duty Stability: Wide base and solid construction prevent tipping, even with asymmetric tool loads.

• Precise Alignment Assistance: Center cut-out ensures accurate centering of casings or tools under the rotary drive.

• Easy Handling: Slotted design enables attachment of lifting hooks or forklift guides for jobsite mobility.

• Compact and Portable: Designed to be moved easily by two workers or machinery.

• Corrosion Resistant: Powder-coated or galvanized surface extends operational life in outdoor conditions.

• Minimal Maintenance: No moving parts; simply clean and store in dry environments after use.

Applications

• Tool Handling During Setup: Acts as a cradle or rest for casing sections, augers, or buckets while waiting to be lifted.

• Guided Casing Installation: Supports and aligns the first section of casing during vertical positioning and torque transfer.

• Safe Disconnection Zones: Holds tools safely during bit or segment changes, especially in tight urban sites.

• Storage Stability: Prevents heavy tools from rolling or falling when temporarily stored at the jobsite.

• Marine and Offshore Applications: Can be used on barges or platforms for controlled handling in wave-prone zones.
