Epiroc underground drill bits

Epiroc underground drill bits are more than just a drill bit. They're a way to boost the return on your rig investment through increased drilling efficiency and reliability.

Boosts modern rigs...

Even the most powerful rig won’t do all the work by itself. You need a drill bit that matches the rig’s performance, withstanding the immense forces to give you more drill meters per day. Only then will you experience true drilling productivity.

...and older rigs too

Epiroc underground drill bits gives older rigs a power boost too. It has optimized flushing holes and a smarter hole configuration than previous generations of bits. It will therefore increase the efficiency of rigs with lower water pressure and less effective flushing.

Faster, more reliable drilling

Our upgraded bits drills up to 15 percent faster than previous Epiroc models, reducing the total cost of ownership considerably.

Even so, the true gain comes from what our bits will do to your availability and productivity. How about 20 percent more drill meters before the first regrind and 15 percent more drill meters between regrinds?

With our innovative bits, you will experience a whole new “flow” at work. Enjoying the satisfaction of trouble-free, uninterrupted drilling that spells more money in your pocket. All thanks to the bit’s extreme ruggedness.

Full utilization of your rig

Drill rigs get most of the attention in mining – and perhaps rightly so. After all, they do provide the necessary brute force - but smart miners also realize how to best make use of their rig’s full capacity.

Epiroc underground drill bits allows you to complete more drill meters per day. Experience faster and more reliable drilling. Improve efficiency. Capitalize fully on your rig investment. All thanks to Epiroc underground drill bits.

Protected by diamonds with the new PCD technology

Drill bits where the buttons are coated with diamond protect your people, your productivity and the environment. The technology is called PCD (polycrystalline diamond) and is used in our new drill bit range. Explore how a two-millimeter diamond layer can help you improve workplace safety, reduce downtime and minimize CO₂ emissions.

Eliminate live work - Improve safety with fewer drill bit changes.

Expand the potential of automation - Boost productivity by drilling without interruption.

Cut down CO2 emissions - Reduce the amount of CO2 emissions per drilled meter – by up to 90%.

For miners who want to push it to the limit

Drill more meters every day and between regrinds, while enjoying longer bit service life. It´s simply a drill bit for miners who won´t settle for anything but the fastest, most productive underground drilling imaginable. 

Increased service life - The premium Epiroc grade of carbide is harder and tougher than  ever before.

Improved rate of penetration - The bit design gives an optimized balance of bit diameter wear and penetration rate.

Straighter holes - By keeping a tighter match in between head and skirt diameter enables the bit to drill straighter holes due to less angular deflection.

A new assortment of bolting bits

The new assortment of bolting bits are designed to enhance efficiency and reliability in rock drilling operations. With innovations like Trubbnos button technology, these tools deliver longer service life, higher Rate of Penetration (ROP), and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

Longer service life - Enhanced durability ensures the bit diameter remains consistent, which is crucial for bolting operations.

Higher Rate of Penetration (ROP) - Optimized button designs and a new flushing system contribute to faster and more efficient drilling by quickly removing rock debris.

Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) - Increased productivity and reduced maintenance requirements result in tangible cost savings.
