The pipe bursting system from Anaconda Trenchless Systems can be used for trenchless replacement of existing utility, water, gas and sewer piping that is either worn out, undersized or incapable of meeting the needs of growing communities. An existing pipe is replaced size-for-size or upsized with a new pipe in the same location and accomplished by pulling the new pipe through the old pipe. The demolition cone, by virtue of its size or its radial expansion ability shatters the old pipe and forces the fragments into the surrounding soil. The technique is cost-effective, as there are few lateral connections when the old pipe is structurally deteriorated and when additional capacity is needed. The process can be used on pipes of cast or ductile iron, clay, steel, concrete, ABS or PVC. 562/365-3627; www.anacondatrenchless.com
