Comacchio MC 15P Specs & Job Types

  • Comacchio MC 15P Micropile & Anchor Rig​

    • Industry‑leading mast articulation for working in tight urban corridors, along retaining walls, and on steep slopes where conventional rigs cannot position safely.​

    • Power and size: Approx. 168 kW (about 225 HP) high‑performance diesel engine with operating weight around 16.5–18.5 tons (≈36,000–40,700 lbs), keeping the rig compact and often within non‑permit‑move limits in many states.​

    • Mast and feed system: Mast feed stroke of roughly 3,550–7,000 mm (≈11.6–22.9 ft) with about 8,000 daN (≈18,000 lbs) feed/retract force for 2 m tooling, long single passes, and reliable casing advancement.​

    • Drilling heads: Multiple rotary head options delivering approximately 1,000–3,100 daNm (≈7,000–22,800 lb‑ft) of torque to cover heavy rotary drilling, overburden systems, and jet‑grout tooling.​

    • Clamp capacity: Clamp range of about 45–530 mm (≈1.8–20.9 in), covering typical micropile, tieback, soil nail, and casing diameters.​

    Typical job types​

    • Micropile foundations and underpinning for bridges, buildings, tanks, and industrial structures.​

    • Ground anchors, tiebacks, and soil nails for retaining walls, excavation support, and slopes.​

    • Jet grouting for ground improvement, settlement control, and cut‑off walls.​

    • Ground consolidation and overburden/duplex drilling in mixed or difficult soils.

MC 15P overview

The Comacchio MC 15P is a compact, fully articulated crawler‑mounted drill rig for micropiles, anchors, soil nails, jet grouting, and other specialty foundation work. It blends strong engine power, long mast stroke, and versatile articulation so crews can drill along retaining walls, in tight urban corridors, and on slopes where larger rigs cannot safely position.

Why rent the MC 15P from NPP

National Piling Products is a deep‑foundation specialist supplying rental drill rigs, Intric grout plants, materials, load testing, and field consulting focused on micropile and anchor projects. The fleet is built around limited‑access and articulated rigs, so the MC 15P arrives configured for real‑world foundation work and backed by experienced drillers and engineers who understand challenging ground and logistics.

Pair the MC 15P with Intric grout plants

NPP distributes Intric Grouting Solutions and offers D‑series grout plants like the D9 and D12 for sale and rent, letting contractors match the MC 15P with high‑shear, high‑pressure grout systems on the same project. Using the same partner for the drill rig and grout plant helps dial in drilling parameters, mix designs, and grouting pressures into a single, efficient workflow.

Top‑notch mechanic shop and support

NPP’s operation is anchored by a mechanic team with years of specialty setup and repair experience on demanding deep‑foundation work, supporting Comacchio rigs, TEI attachments, Intric grout plants, and related equipment. This group maintains the rental fleet, tunes hydraulics and rotary heads, and troubleshoots issues quickly so the MC 15P stays productive from mobilization through demobilization.
