DSI Hollow Bar System
The DSI Hollow Bar System is a self-drilling ground control solution used in Civil Engineering and Underground Construction. It features a wide range of applications such as soil nails, micropiles, rock bolts, or ground anchors. Installations in weak ground and under unstable borehole conditions represent no difficulty and are ideal for the application of the DSI Hollow Bar System. Additionally, the DSI Hollow Bar System may be used as a forepoling element for pre-support or as a lance for injection works. DSI Underground has a long-term experience in the development, manufacturing, and distribution of the DSI Hollow Bar System.
