Taper drill rod is widely used for rock drilling, blasting holes, and other drilling applications in quarries, coal mines, and infrastructure construction. It works seamlessly with taper drill bits and is available in various lengths.
Generally, light-duty rock drills utilize a 7° taper or smaller, while heavy-duty rock drills primarily use 11° or 12° taper angles. It is essential that the tapered rods and drill bits share the same degree for optimal performance. We provide tapered rods in a full range of shank configurations and steel hex diameters for hand-held pneumatic drilling needs.
