The April 2026 issue of ADSC’s Foundation Drilling magazine recently featured the Marini MR-C 90 from Western Equipment Solutions, highlighting its role as a powerful and compact solution for today’s micropile and slope stabilization contractors.
As infrastructure projects continue moving into tighter urban environments and more challenging terrain, contractors need equipment that delivers performance and maneuverability. The article explains how the MR-C 90 meets those demands.
Powered by a 154 HP engine and capable of producing up to 11,800 ft-lbs of torque, the MR-C 90 combines impressive drilling performance with a compact footprint. Its long-reach mast allows operators to drill vertical, inclined, and horizontal holes without constantly repositioning the carrier, improving efficiency on steep slopes, narrow benches, and confined jobsites.
The machine’s full radio remote-control system further enhances safety by allowing operators to maintain visibility and work from safer positions in challenging environments.
The article also highlights the rig’s versatility. The MR-C 90 can be configured with either a rotary head or hydraulic drifter, making it well-suited for micropiles, anchors, tiebacks, soil nails, rock bolts, and hollow bar applications across varying soil and rock conditions.
As an authorized Marini distributor, Western Equipment Solutions proudly provides the MR-C 90 throughout the Western United States and Western Canada, backed by expert technical support, parts availability, and application guidance. You can read the article here.
