An integral drill rod is a drilling tool used to improve drilling efficiency and reduce energy loss. They are used in a variety of applications, including:
- Underground mining
- Drilling small holes in quarries and coal mines
- Blasting holes
- Traffic and other construction work
Integral drill rods are made from high-quality alloy steel and tungsten carbide. They can be used with hand-held rock drills and air-leg rock drills. Some advantages of integral drill rods include:
- Improved efficiency: Integral drill rods can improve drilling speed and efficiency.
- Reduced energy loss: Integral drill rods can reduce the amount of energy lost during drilling.
- Higher percussive force utilization rate: Integral drill rods can utilize percussive force 18–25% more effectively than separate drill bits.
- Easy to remove: Integral drill rods can be easily removed without breaking the drill bit.
- Reusable worn bit end: The worn end of an integral drill rod can be reused as a conical drill bit after polishing.
