Introduction of T38 Drill Rod-SHANDIKE
Author: SHANDIKE
#1. Overview
T38 drill rods are high-strength alloy steel rods designed for drilling operations in mining and construction. The “T38” designation refers to the standardized thread size used to connect drill bits, shank adapters, or additional rods to the drill pipe, ensuring compatibility across drilling equipment.
#2. Classification
T38 drill rods are categorized into two types based on thread configuration:
– Extension Drill Rod (MM Rod):
– Design: Male threads on both ends (Male-Male).
– Usage: Connects the shank adapter to the drill bit. For deeper drilling, additional rods are joined using a coupling sleeve.
– Speed Drill Rod (MF Rod):
– Design: Male thread on one end, female thread on the other (Male-Female).
– Usage: Enables direct connection of multiple rods without coupling sleeves, reducing labor time and costs.
#3. Applications
T38 rods are utilized in:
– Mineral, oil, gas, and groundwater extraction.
– Geological exploration.
– Tunnel construction and hydropower projects.
Operated with drill bits, shank adapters, and drill rigs.
