Product Description
The 171mm QL60-171 DTH drill bit is engineered for iron ore mining and heavy-duty hard rock drilling. Reinforced with embedded premium PDC cutters, it features a concave face and three-air-hole design to deliver efficient cuttings evacuation, reliable hole quality, and extended service life in abrasive formations.
Built for Iron Ore Mining with Embedded PDC Cutter Reinforcement
The QL60-171 DTH drill bit combines high-strength carbide buttons with strategically embedded premium PDC cutters to create a durable hybrid drilling structure. The embedded PDC cutters reinforce the gauge area, helping reduce wear, maintain accurate hole diameter, and extend the service life of the drill bit in abrasive iron ore formations.
Designed with a concave face profile and a three-air-hole configuration, the bit improves compressed air distribution and accelerates the removal of rock cuttings. This reduces regrinding, keeps the drilling face cleaner, and supports more efficient penetration during long drilling cycles.
Developed for iron ore mining, especially in challenging hard rock environments such as those found in South Africa, the QL60-171 delivers dependable drilling performance, high productivity, and reduced maintenance requirements.
