DTH hammer is 6 inches in diameter and was the first to be introduced into the DTH product line.According to the company, its valve design provides reliable operation, low air consumption, easier maintenance and cost-effective rebuilding.Additionally, the piston design provides long life and efficient energy transfer.

The hammer can operate with a compressed air system up to 500 psi.This additional back pressure, combined with the corresponding airflow required, produces more blows per minute, resulting in faster penetration rates.

Also offers drills for down-the-hole drilling.The bits are now available in several different configurations (6.75 inches) in standard and heavy-duty versions to match the bits to rock properties and job requirements.

Bit options include a variety of carbide shapes (spherical, ballistic) and face shapes (concave, flat, convex), and are optimized for high wear resistance and improved rock chipping.Aggressive, long-lasting cutting structure combined with high-efficiency DTH hammers provide exceptional penetration.
