Bron 450 Commercial Drainage Plow

Weighing in at nearly 40 tons and packing a 440 horsepower CAT engine, the Bron 450 is a self-propelled drainage plow that provides an excellent balance of power and agility through all types of soil conditions. This machine is used to install 4” - 6” drain tile as deep as 5 feet.

Custom Dual On-board Reel Carrier

SFDI worked closely with RFW Bron to design and build a custom On-board Reel Carrier capable of carrying two rolls of pipe. This reduces the need for additional support equipment and personnel, increasing the speed and efficiency of installation.

Port Hydramaxx 2715 Wheel Trencher

With over 420 horsepower, the Port Industries Hydramaxx 2715 can move a lot of dirt. Our custom built trencher is capable of installing tile as large as 30” up to 7.5 deep. The trapezoidal buckets and v-grover create the perfect trench to properly support all sizes of pipe from 4” - 30”.

Quick-detach Digging Wheel

Always Looking for ways to improve efficiency, SFDI teamed up with Port Industries to develop a quick-detach digging wheel, enabling our crew to quickly swap out the entire digging mechanism in less than 20 minutes. Our two digging wheels are designed to accommodate the installation of single-wall and dual-wall pipe.
