Drag Bit
Drag Bits
Alloy Drag Bits are the simplest scraping-type drill bits, breaking soft formations through rotary scraping. Simple structure, low cost, suitable for water well drilling and shallow exploration in soft formations such as clay, sand and soft shale.
Product Overview
Drag bits are among the earliest rotary drilling tools used, with a simple structure consisting of alloy steel blades and connection threads. They break soft formations through blade scraping and crushing action during rotation, offering fast drilling speed and low cost.
Our drag bits are manufactured by certified partner factories using premium alloy steel materials, available in spiral or straight blade designs, suitable for water well drilling, agricultural irrigation, foundation engineering dewatering and many other applications.
