FAQS about Down-the-hole drill installation and debugging video

What is a down-the-hole drill?

A down-the-hole drill, usually called DTH by most professionals, is basically a jackhammer screwed on the bottom of a drill string. The fast hammer action breaks hard rock into small cuttings and dust that are evacuated by a fluid (air, water or drilling mud). The DTH hammer is one of the fastest ways to drill hard rock.

What is down-the-hole (DTH) drilling?

Down-the-hole (DTH) drilling has made it easier for contractors to drill wells faster and more efficiently, and to transition from dirt boring to rock boring just by adding a compressor and hammer to the drill bit.

How does DTH drilling work?

With DTH drilling, contractors can change the drill that they were using for the current directional bore to a rock drill when they encounter rock by connecting the drill with a compressor and a steerable hammer. Well drilling also needed changes to be made to rotary drilling when the well needed to take a turn.

How does DTH hammer drilling work?

A flushing current conveys the loosened drill cuttings upwards and exits at the upper end of the casing. If you have any further questions, please contact our local sales or service team. DTH hammer drilling is a percussive drilling process powered by compressed air.

What is a DTH drill?

DTH is short for “down-the-hole”. Since the DTH method was originally developed to drill large-diameter holes downwards in surface-drilling applications, its name originated from the fact that the percussion mechanism followed the bit down into the hole.

How do you drill a rock with a DTH hammer?

This method is mainly applied for hard to very hard rock and/or for penetrating large boulders. 1. Setting the DTH hammer with drill rod and casing on the drilling point. 2. Rotary and percussive drilling of the drill string under compressed air supply. 3. After reaching the final depth, unlocking of the drill rod with DTH hammer and pilot bit.
