KAT DRILLING
1 / 5
Bench and production drilling tools include rods, shank adapters, couplings and bits. We offer 7 main thread types: R3212, R32, HL38, T38, T45, T51, T60, ST58, and ST68. These are fully compatible with button bits, cross bits, and reaming products.
Drifter Rod (Tunneling Steels): Available in round and hexagon shapes. Hexagon rods are more rigid and heavier, allowing for more efficient energy transfer and increased flushing for tunneling and drifting applications.
Extension Rod (M/F / Speed Rod): Produced in hexagonal and round cross-sections. Round rods are generally lighter and used in standard extension drilling, while hexagon rods offer superior rigidity. Conventional extension steel features duplicate threads on each end.
