A GT60 drill bit is a heavy-duty rock drill bit designed for large-diameter holes (92 – 152 mm) in hard rock applications, commonly used in mining and construction. It is part of the larger Sandvik GT60 system, which features a larger rod cross-section (60 mm) for higher penetration rates, greater stability, and improved energy transfer compared to smaller systems like T51.
Key features include durability, high performance, and a "retrac" skirt for easier retrieval.
Key features and benefits
Size and application: It is designed for larger hole diameters (from 92 mm to 152 mm) and is ideal for deep, long-hole drilling in hard, abrasive rock.
System compatibility: The GT60 thread is designed to work with the GT60 rod system, which includes rods with a larger 60 mm cross-section for greater rigidity and energy transfer.
Performance: It offers high penetration rates and drilling accuracy, with some systems claiming up to twice the penetration of DTH drilling for less energy consumption.
Durability: Built with high-quality materials, these bits are designed to withstand harsh drilling environments and have a long service life.
Retrac design: A "retrac" design features a special skirt to help ensure the drill string can be pulled out of the hole, preventing it from getting stuck.
Hole straightness: The entire GT60 system, including the rods, contributes to better hole straightness compared to smaller, less rigid systems
