Drill Bits Epiroc

The Epiroc selection of underground drilling tools is developed to meet the high-performance standards of today's mining and tunneling environments. These solutions improve daily output, reduce tool wear, and support accurate directional control. The range includes advanced options such as Powerbit X with diamond coating, versatile tools from the PUG series, robust retrac models, and specialized bolting options for reinforcement applications.

Main benefits

• Extended durability – Premium-grade materials and wear-resistant geometries minimize regrinds and extend tool usage.
• Accelerated rock penetration – Optimized cutting profiles and button configurations help achieve faster progress through hard formations.
• Improved alignment – Refined tip-to-body design reduces deviation, ensuring precise bore trajectories.
• Operational efficiency – Fewer tool changes and reduced servicing improve workflow continuity.
• Automation support – The diamond-reinforced Powerbit X allows for extended autonomous drilling sessions and minimal manual intervention.

Overview

Powerbit X represents a leap forward in underground performance. Using PCD (polycrystalline diamond) technology, these tools extend tool life and promote sustainable operations by reducing CO₂ output and eliminating frequent replacements.

The PUG series provides broad adaptability with head sizes ranging from 33 to 127 mm and button shapes like spherical, ballistic, and Trubbnos. Designed for both daily production and tunnel development, these models balance wear control and productivity gains.

Retrac-style models are built for demanding formations, delivering improved guidance, longer tool life, and increased meterage between maintenance intervals. Reinforced with upgraded steel and flushing channels, they minimize hole deviation and maximize chip removal.

Anchoring tools with Trubbnos profiles and redesigned flushing zones offer high accuracy and consistent diameter retention, essential in stabilization work. These enhancements reduce replacement frequency and help cut operational costs.
