The FP-112-AA Sleeper Drill is designed to drill holes in timber sleepers for the dog and/or lock spikes used to secure the rail to the sleeper.
Melvelle Equipment Corp have utilised and modified the Stihl BT131 as part of its Sleeper Drill. The modifications carried out increase the drive speed of the drill bit and incorporate an extension shaft with a trouser guard. This modification allows the user to perform drilling operations quickly and efficiently and at a comfortable standing height. The use of the Bt 131, combined with the safety focused modifications ensure a safe, lightweight and robust piece of equipment.
Typically, the drilling operation will take only a few seconds to complete.
