A Key Role in Preserving the Delaware Water Gap
The Delaware Water Gap is a breathtaking marvel of nature. Spanning a 40-mile stretch of the Delaware River in northwest New Jersey and northeast Pennsylvania, it attracts approximately 4 million visitors annually. This natural gem offers a diverse range of recreational activities, including canoeing, kayaking, hiking, rock climbing, and fishing. Worthington State Forest, the Appalachian Trail, numerous waterfalls, and historic sites enhance its allure. For those yet to visit, the Delaware Water Gap is a must-see, whether you’re an avid outdoor enthusiast or someone simply seeking a scenic drive.
IEW Construction recently undertook an essential infrastructure project in this iconic region, addressing safety and environmental concerns along Route 80. Founded in 1925 and deeply rooted in New Jersey’s history, IEW has contributed to landmarks such as the New Jersey War Memorial and Princeton High School. For the Delaware Water Gap project, IEW Construction drove 40-foot steel H-piles using an ICE® 28 Vibratory Hammer to stabilize the road and improve drainage in an area prone to flooding.
Hydrauli-Flex Hoses: The Backbone of Heavy-Duty Equipment
At the core of this significant achievement lies Hydrauli-Flex—hoses designed for durability and peak performance. These hoses powered the ICE® 28 Vibratory Hammer, a key piece of equipment that drove 40-foot steel H-piles deep into the ground. The ICE® 28 Vibratory Hammer is renowned for its efficiency and precision in pile driving, making it an indispensable tool for infrastructure projects like this one.
Hydrauli-Flex hoses are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of heavy-duty equipment. Built to withstand extreme pressures, harsh environments, and continuous use, they provide the reliability that operators and contractors depend on. Their ability to maintain consistent hydraulic flow ensures that equipment like the ICE® 28 Vibratory Hammer operates at peak performance, even under the toughest conditions.
