Sandvik Mining and Construction is pleased to announce the global availability of its line of rotary drill pipe tools, which now gives you the ability to purchase all products involved in the drilling process from one supplier. Engineered to handle the demanding operational requirements of drilling hard rock and abrasive formations commonly found in surface mining drilling, the line is built to withstand extreme torsional and axial loads. Continuous testing and analysis at our Materials and Reliability Engineering Centers provide a comprehensive understanding of product needs per unique customer application allowing for delivery of an optimum solution.
Comprising this varied and rugged line are:
- Drill pipe - made from premium quality, heat-treated seamless tubing, it is available in ultra premium grade (special alloy) for hard abrasive formations, and premium grade for non-abrasive formations. Outside diameters are available from 3” (76.2 mm) to 13 3/8” (339.7 mm)
- Rotary subs and adapters – bit (bottom) subs), top (spindle) subs, cross-over subs and thread-saver subs available, manufactured with stringent heat treatment specifications
- Stabilizers – two designs available: 1) welded blade, with an integral fixed blade design with no moving parts, optimal for scraping; 2) rotating roller, incorporating Sandvik’s tungsten carbide inserts resistant to breakage and wear
- Deck bushings – static or rotary, they run smoothly and provide extended trouble-free operation
- Shock subs – reduces drill string vibrations which minimize rotary head wear and damage while insuring a constant bit-on-bottomhole cutting action
