Standard Assortment
DTH drill bits to match all conceivable applications. Each bit is made from quality alloy steel, and has been precision machined to produce a perfect body, heat treated to the required hardness, given surface compression for fatigue resistance, and fitted with precision buttons manufactured in-house.
Four basic designs are available: Convex, Flat front, Speed Bit, Concave. These are designed for specific applications for all rock types, hardness’s and conditions Bit life and rate of penetration are the most important criteria in selecting the right bit for a particular application.
Flat front
- √ Applications: Hard and abrasive formations, all round.
- √ Typical formations: Granite, hard limestone, basalt.
Speed Bit
- √ Applications: Medium hard to hard and abrasive formations. For higher productivity.
- √ Design feature: Ballistic buttons in front.
- √ Typical formations: Granite, hard limestone, basalt.
Convex front & ballistic
- √ Applications: Soft to medium hard rock. Non abrasive formations. High penetration rate.
- √ Typical formations: Limestone, hard limestone, shale.
Concave front
- √ Applications: Medium hard to hard formations. Less abrasive, fractured formations. Excellent control over hole deviation.
- √ Design feature: HD - larger gauge buttons. DGR - double (overlap Ping) gauge row. Only from 8".
- √ Typical formations: Granite, hard limestone, basalt.
