Hydraulic Fiber Optic Cable Blowing Machine
Hidrofok Cable Blowing Machine
Hidrofok Cable Blowing Machine is a hydraulic fiber optic cable blowing machine engineered for heavy-duty installation of fiber optic cables and microduct-based configurations in HDPE ducts. It supports Ø9 mm to Ø25 mm cable diameters and Ø20 mm to Ø60 mm duct outer diameters, making it the right choice for longer routes, higher pushing force and tougher field conditions.
If your project needs more driving force than a standard air-motor machine can provide, Hidrofok gives you a more robust hydraulic platform for high-capacity cable installation. For lighter applications, you can also review the FOK Cable Blowing Machine, MiniFOK Cable Blowing Machine and the full cable blowing machine range.

Hidrofok Cable Blowing Machine for Long-Distance and Heavy-Duty Installation
Hidrofok is developed for contractors and network installers who need a hydraulic cable blowing machine with higher traction, stable feed control and better performance in demanding routes. The machine works with a hydraulic power unit and dual hydraulic motors, while the pneumatic pressure system helps maintain secure cable grip without unnecessary damage. For projects involving thicker cables, longer sections or harsher duct conditions, this is the machine that earns its keep instead of pretending optimism is a power source.
Hydraulic Drive Advantage
Compared with air-motor-based systems, the hydraulic drive layout provides stronger and more consistent pushing force, especially on long links and larger cable diameters.
Built for Field Reality
Hidrofok is suitable for rural routes, outside plant work and installations where duct condition, route length and friction demand more than a compact entry-level machine.
Flexible Configuration
Pallet sets, cable aligning parts, duct inserts and sealing components are selected according to actual cable and duct sizes, so the machine can be configured around the project instead of the other way around.

Why Choose the Hidrofok Cable Blowing Machine?
The main reason to choose Hidrofok is simple: when installation conditions get harder, a stronger machine usually beats wishful thinking. Hidrofok is positioned for heavier cable installation work where higher feed force and better control are critical.
More Power Than Air-Motor Models
The hydraulic system provides a stronger drive platform for larger cable diameters, longer sections and more difficult duct conditions.
Stable Cable Grip
The pallet drive system and pneumatic pressure control help keep traction stable while compensating for cable diameter tolerances.
Productive on Long Routes
Hidrofok is designed for long-haul installation work, rural deployment and outside plant projects where downtime and repeated setup waste time and money.
Choose Hidrofok when you need
- Higher pushing force than compact cable blowers
- Support for cable diameters up to Ø25 mm
- Support for larger duct OD values up to Ø60 mm
- Better performance on long-distance installation routes
- A machine better suited to demanding site conditions
Need a smaller machine instead?
- FOK Cable Blowing Machine for versatile mid-range cable work
- MiniFOK Cable Blowing Machine for smaller cable diameters
- MikroFOK Cable Blowing Machine for FTTH and micro cable applications
- DrillFOK for compact and practical drill-powered work
How Hidrofok Cable Blowing Machine Works
Hidrofok combines compressed air, hydraulic drive force and correctly selected guiding components to move the cable through the duct with controlled speed and traction. A good result depends on selecting the proper setup, not on praying at the compressor.
1
Measure Cable and Duct
Confirm actual cable outer diameter and duct outer diameter before choosing the machine setup.
2
Select the Right Configuration
Match pallet set, cable aligning parts, duct insert and seals to the real project dimensions.
3
Connect Power and Air
Prepare the hydraulic power unit, air line and duct entry system for stable installation performance.
4
Adjust Pressure and Speed
Set hydraulic feed and pneumatic pressure to achieve secure grip without overloading the cable.
5
Monitor the Run
Track cable feed, route condition and friction behavior throughout the blowing operation.

Hidrofok Cable Blowing Machine FAQ
What cable diameter can the Hidrofok Cable Blowing Machine install?
Hidrofok supports fiber optic cable diameters from Ø9 mm to Ø25 mm, depending on the selected setup and project conditions.
What duct sizes are supported?
The machine is suitable for Ø20 mm to Ø60 mm duct outer diameter applications when the correct duct connection tools and inserts are selected.
When should I choose Hidrofok instead of FOK?
Choose Hidrofok when you need a stronger hydraulic cable blowing machine for longer distances, larger cable diameters or more demanding field conditions. For more versatile mid-range work, see the FOK model.
Is the air compressor included with the machine?
No. The standard package does not include the air compressor, air cooler or lubricant oil.
What compressor capacity is recommended?
The minimum recommended compressor capacity is 10.5 m³/min at 12 bar. Higher capacity can improve performance, especially in more difficult duct conditions.
Can Hidrofok be configured for different cable and duct combinations?
Yes. Pallet groups, cable aligning parts, duct connection tools and seals are selected according to the actual cable outer diameter and duct size required for the project.
