A GREAT DRILL BEGINS WITH GREAT EXPERIENCE.With a powerful combination of rugged reliability and proven intuition, the JT60 is here to work more efficiently with less downtime.
Features may include:
POWER- The JT60’s powerful combination of 60,000 lb (267 kN) thrust and pullback with 9,000 ft-lb (12,240 N·m) rotational torque is the only combination you need for outstanding productivity on big installation jobs. Choose between a 190-gross-hp (142-kW) Tier 3 or a 200-gross-hp (149kW) Tier 4 Cummins® diesel engine.
- The JT60 has a simple, intuitive carve mode that reduces operator fatigue—compatible with superior TriHawk® HD housings and bits for exceptional productivity. Heavy-duty, planetary-driven anchor system enables you to use full machine thrust in tough jobsite conditions, improving productivity.
- Dual rear independent stabilizers allows for set up on uneven terrain. A wireless operation system allows more remote control over your machine allowing for more efficient jobsite setup. Proven, industry-leading pipe-loading system is simple, easy to use and is designed to increase productivity.
- With a dual-pivot drill frame, the JT60 allows for steep entry angles without raising the tracks off the ground keeping the operator station level for maximized comfort. Fully enclosed, climate-controlled cab features instrument panel gauges positioned for visibility, with conveniently placed controls and an excellent view of the tool joint.
