Investing in used drilling equipment can be a smart business decision. The key is knowing where the machine came from and who inspected it before it goes to work on your jobsite. At Traxxon, we sell used drilling equipment across North America, and every machine is thoroughly inspected by our industry trained mechanics before it leaves our yard.

The Sandvik Ranger DX800 is a top hammer drill rig with an ergonomic cabin and rod handling system. Typical applications are road cutting, pipeline drilling, foundation drilling and production drilling in medium size quarries and open pit mines.

Traxxon offers a strong lineup of new and used and drilling equipment, available for purchase or rent. From surface drill rigs and foundation equipment to hammers and attachments, our machines are selected for durability, accuracy, and proven field performance.

The MC-E 30 combines the reach and flexibility of an excavator boom with the controlled performance of a dedicated micropile rig. Mounted on a mid sized excavator, it allows crews to drill where traditional crawler rigs simply cannot go.

Designed for compact drilling applications, the MC 9 is a go-to solution for contractors working in confined spaces without compromising performance. Its size makes it ideal for urban sites, restricted access projects, and jobs where maneuverability is just as important as drilling capability.

Winter can be one of the toughest seasons on your drilling equipment. Low temperatures, moisture, and frozen ground can take a toll on hydraulic systems, engines, and components if they’re not properly prepared. Taking time now to winterize your rig helps prevent costly downtime, extend equipment life, and keep your operation running smoothly all season long.

Every jobsite comes with its own challenges, space restrictions, soil types, or specific drilling requirements that standard equipment can’t always address. That’s where TR-EX attachments come in.

When it comes to foundation drilling, selecting the right equipment can make or break a project’s success. Soil conditions, drilling depth, and space constraints all play a role, and having the right rig ensures safety, precision, and efficiency on site.

We understand the value of keeping your equipment in peak condition. Regular preventative maintenance is not just about saving money, it’s about protecting your team, maximizing efficiency, and safeguarding your investment. Make preventative maintenance a cornerstone of your drilling operations!

Our customer came to us with the request of using their CAT 330 excavator and an attachment that could drill probe holes in the ceiling that will vary in height from 40-50 feet. We took to the drawing boards and built an extension to the front of the mast on our TR-EX 1500 shoring attachment. This unit is now working hard underground at an old limestone quarry, making drilling into 50 foot ceilings look like an easy task!

You already have the excavator, now make it drill. The TR-EX drill attachment transforms your existing excavator into a powerful rock drilling solution, without compromise.

We understand the temptation to save money by choosing aftermarket parts—but when it comes to drill shanks, this decision can come at a hefty cost. Let us show you why OEM parts are the smarter choice for your operation. The Problem with Aftermarket Shanks Roughly two-thirds of the shank sits inside the drifter during operation, meaning any failure can lead to catastrophic and expensive damage. Recently, we had to rebuild a customer’s drifter due to an aftermarket shank failu
