Our drill pipes are manufactured from high-quality materials (N80 cold-drawn steel from Germany) to optimize your drilling performance. Quality factors such as tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, etc., are analyzed for each diameter to ensure the highest strength and durability.

Discover our range of rods covering all diameters, threads and different lengths to meet all your needs. Our range includes :

  • Rods with Nipples: With diameters ranging from 32 to 50 mm, these rods feature female-to-female threads and are connected with male-to-male nipples. Lengths range from 500 to 3,000 mm.
  • Standard friction-welded rods: Standard diameters range from 42 to 219 mm (and up to 406 mm upon request); models typically kept in stock include AWJ, BWJ, 60, 76, 89, and 114, but all other available diameters can also be provided. Standard lengths range from 0.5 to 6 meters, and up to 12 meters upon request. Standard wall thicknesses are 6.35 and 8.8 mm, but other thicknesses can be considered, particularly for large diameters. For rods with diameters of 89 and larger, all thread types available on the market can be supplied: REG, IF, FH, BECO, etc.
  • Friction welded rods (Hausherr type): From diameter 76 up to 127mm, in standard lengths 3000 and 6000mm (other lengths available on request) for use on barrel drills.

Get an exclusive look at the EX-FLOW® rod, the most innovative rod to date for down-the-hole hammer drilling. It features a constant inner diameter for unobstructed airflow. The specialized plastic tube fills the interior of the rod, reducing air volume and eliminating pressure losses. This technology offers numerous benefits, including, on average: a 15% reduction in drilling time, 20% lower diesel consumption, and a 60% reduction in noise.
The EX-FLOW® drill string is safe during rod uncoiling and is therefore ideal for high-pressure drilling. The drill string is filled more quickly, and maximum air pressure is maintained at the bottom of the hole, enabling optimal performance and significant savings in compressor diesel consumption.
