Product Description

The QL Series High Air Pressure DTH Hammer is a medium-to-heavy duty down-the-hole drilling tool designed for efficient drilling in mining, quarrying, water well drilling, and construction foundation engineering applications.

As one of the most widely used DTH hammer systems in the global drilling market, the QL series offers a balanced combination of high impact energy, stable performance, and wide compatibility. It is designed to operate under medium to high air pressure conditions, making it suitable for both standard and demanding rock drilling environments.

The QL Series includes multiple models such as QL40, QL50, QL60, QL80, QL40A, QL50A, QL680, and QL880, covering a wide drilling range from 110 mm to 254 mm. Each model is engineered with optimized internal airflow channels to ensure efficient energy transfer, reduced air consumption, and improved penetration rate.

Manufactured from high-strength alloy steel with precision heat treatment, the QL series delivers excellent wear resistance and long service life even under continuous heavy-duty drilling operations. The internal piston system ensures stable impact frequency and consistent drilling performance in various rock formations.

Depending on model configuration and working conditions, the QL Series is compatible with API 2 3/8", API 3 1/2", and API 4 1/2" drill rod systems, making it highly adaptable to different drilling rigs and field applications.

This series is widely recognized as a cost-effective and reliable solution for contractors who require stable performance and easy maintenance in medium-to-large diameter drilling projects.
