BAUER Casing Clamps

Secure Support for Maximum Performance

Whether for standard drilling operations or demanding deep drilling projects, the secure support and fixation of drill casing are essential for efficient and safe jobsite operations. With BAUER's mechanical and hydraulic casing clamps, you benefit from a well-engineered design, high load capacity, and maximum operational safety, even under challenging working conditions.

Your Benefits at a Glance

Maximum Safety
The statically engineered design ensures secure support of the drill casing, even in conditions with low soil friction. Large contact surfaces provide optimal load transfer and minimize the risk of slippage.

Designed for the Toughest Applications
High load capacity, robust construction, and long service life make BAUER casing clamps reliable partners on the jobsite, even at great drilling depths and in challenging ground conditions.

Maximum Flexibility
Thanks to their ability to accommodate different casing diameters and the use of reduction inserts, multiple casing sizes can be handled with the same clamp. This reduces investment costs and provides greater flexibility on site.

Easy Handling
Well-thought-out features such as integrated lifting lugs, protected components, parking positions for clamping wedges, and compatibility with all common casing types ensure simple and efficient handling.

Application
  • Standard drill holes (by diameter and depth)
  • Slip-resistant even with low soil friction
  • Designed for maximum safety and a long service life
  • Large drill pipes and drilling depths
  • Secure against slipping, even with low soil friction
  • Designed for maximum safety and a long service life
  • In most cases, only standard drilling is possible (based on diameter and depth)
  • Risk of slippage due to low soil friction
  • Reduced safety and service life
Clamping mechanism
  • Mechanical clamping by inserting clamping wedges
Hydraulic clamping; clamping can be performed using a hydraulic power unit or a drilling rigMechanical clamping via adjustable levers
Contact surface
  • Clamping wedges with a large contact surface for optimal force transmission
  • Special surface for optimal grip on drill pipes
  • One standard wedge for all diameters
Large contact area and optimized clamping force thanks to hydraulic clamping
  • Smaller contact area
  • Poorer design
  • Lower “clamping force”
  • Risk of the drill pipes slipping
