STS V-1.5 | STS V-2.0
SUCTION BARRELS

A trailer-mounted suction barrel is an ideal solution to keep your working pit free from drilling fluid, mud or any other liquid. The suction barrels from Schmies Metallbau’s STS VS-production series are purpose-designed for demanding jobsite use. Intelligent details make day-to-day use easier for the user. One of the main characteristics of the STS series is that there is no need to dismantle the suction hoses for transport as they are easily secured in a side holder. The freely rotating suction hose boom offers a very user-friendly application and ensures a fast and safe working process.
