This Piling Equipment Ltd Cobra T15 is a vertical drill — sometimes referred to as a micro piling rig — designed for the installation of small-diameter foundation piles and ground anchors. Vertical drills of this type are widely used in restricted-access or low-headroom environments where larger rigs cannot operate, making them a common choice for underpinning, slope stabilisation, and infrastructure projects. Piling Equipment Ltd is a recognised UK-based manufacturer specialising in compact and track-mounted piling and drilling machinery for the geotechnical and civil engineering sectors.
This example was manufactured in 2018 and is offered in used condition from the United Kingdom, with just 289 recorded hours of use — a low figure for a machine of this type. Power is provided by a HATZ Super Silent engine rated at 45 kW (65 HP), a unit known for quiet operation and reliability in noise-sensitive environments. The rig is operated via a Scanreco remote control system, allowing the operator to manoeuvre safely away from the working area.
On the drilling side, the machine accepts a maximum bored diameter of 350 mm and delivers a maximum torque of 12,000 Nm across four selectable rotary speeds of 90, 70, 50, and 30 rpm, giving the operator flexibility to match rotation rate to ground conditions and tooling requirements. The stroke is 1,800 mm, and the combined extraction force is 8,000 kg, with a feed extraction rating of 3,200 kg. A 300 kg winch is fitted as standard.
The undercarriage travels at speeds of 7 or 10 km/h and exerts a ground bearing pressure of just 6 PSI, allowing the machine to work on softer or more sensitive ground surfaces. Hydraulic clamps and a sideshift function are included, adding versatility when positioning over pile locations in confined or irregular working areas.
