Key features of a high quality DTH pipe are durability, accuracy and manageability. Atlas Copco Secoroc pipes are made from cold drawn piping, providing a superior surface finish and tolerance. This drastically reduces the risk of scaling from the pipes entering the hammer, a major cause of premature hammer failure. The joints are friction welded to achieve maximum strength and ensure long thread life.

This also makes coupling and uncoupling quick and simple, reducing drilling time.
