Universal HDD reamers are engineered for professional horizontal directional drilling contractors working across a wide range of soil conditions and bore diameters. Our HDD reamer catalog includes fluted reamers, fly cutter reamers, rock reamers, and barrel reamers available in diameters from 6" to 20", with pull force ratings from 10T to 30T and thread connections including 2 3/8" FSI and 2 7/8" FSI to fit the most common HDD drill strings in use across the industry today.
Fluted HDD reamers are the go-to tooling solution for soft to medium soil conditions including clay, sand, loam, and mixed ground, delivering efficient bore enlargement and consistent cuttings evacuation during pullback. Fly cutter reamers are designed for more challenging ground conditions including medium to hard soil, cobble, and soft rock, where aggressive cutting action and superior fluid circulation are required to maintain bore integrity and drilling efficiency.
All Universal HDD reamers feature built-in swivels to eliminate pipe rotation during product pipe pullback, protecting the pipe and drill string from torsional stress on every bore. Our reamers are compatible with leading HDD drill manufacturers including Vermeer, Ditch Witch, Toro, American Augers, and other standard drill string configurations used by trenchless drilling contractors across the United States.
Selecting the right HDD reamer for your project depends on several key factors including bore diameter, product pipe OD, soil conditions, machine pull force rating, and drill string thread connection. As a general industry guideline, the reamer diameter should be approximately 1.5x the outer diameter of the product pipe being pulled. Our HDD tooling specialists in Lake Zurich, IL are available to help you identify the correct reamer size, type, and configuration for any trenchless drilling application — from small residential bores to large-scale municipal and industrial pipeline projects.
