Bench And Long-Hole Drilling ST68 (2 3/4″)

Bench and long-hole drilling with the ST68 (2 3/4″) typically involves the use of this specific drill bit for drilling operations in benches or for creating long holes. The ST68 drill bit, with its 2 3/4″ diameter, is designed for specific applications and materials.

The drill bit may feature different cutting edge geometries, such as ball teeth, which are suitable for various drilling conditions and materials. The choice of cutting edge geometry depends on the hardness and abrasiveness of the material being drilled, as well as the desired hole quality and drilling efficiency.

For bench drilling, the ST68 drill bit can be used to create precise holes in a controlled environment, such as a workshop or mining facility. The size and design of the bit allow for efficient drilling in medium to hard materials.

For long-hole drilling, the ST68 drill bit can be employed to create extended holes for various purposes, such as ventilation, ore extraction, or geotechnical investigations. The ability to drill long holes efficiently is crucial in mining and construction applications, where productivity and safety are paramount.

When performing bench and long-hole drilling with the ST68 (2 3/4″), it is important to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for drilling parameters, such as rotation speed, feed rate, and coolant usage. This ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of the drill bit.

Additionally, safety should always be a priority during drilling operations. Operators should wear appropriate protective gear and adhere to safety procedures to minimize the risk of accidents or injuries.

It is also worth noting that the specific applications and performance of the ST68 (2 3/4″) drill bit may vary depending on the manufacturer and the specific design of the bit. Therefore, it is recommended to consult the manufacturer’s literature or contact a drilling expert for more detailed information and guidance.
