Epiroc offers powerful DTH drills

Epiroc is now offering its new DTH 5 hammers, which are designed to maximise efficiency and versatility in drilling work. The firm claims high penetration rates and long service life for the units, boosting performance and cost-effectiveness. 

Suited to high- and low-impact energy duties, the Epiroc DTH 5 hammers tackle any rock formation and configurations. High productivity with fewer interruptions and reduced manufacturing and transportation needs help to lower CO₂ emissions and sustainability goals.

The DTH 5 hammers allow operators to drill more/shift, rebuild hammers up to three times with E-Kits from Epiroc, and allow a lower total cost of ownership (TCO). The units can be used with all leading brands of compressors and rigs.
