Product Details

Compact RC exploration rig

A compact reverse circulation rig for mineral exploration and projects with access constraints. The catalogue configuration lists a maximum depth of 400 m, 3 m rods and a 132 kW Cummins engine.

Match the rig, tooling and air supply

The catalogue recommends RC45 / RC55 hammers for the RC500L. Send your target hole diameter and depth, formation, rod connection requirements and compressor pressure and flow so the equipment package can be checked together.

Prepare your equipment request

Specify the drill rods, hammers, bits and initial wear-parts package you need with the rig. Include delivery country, quantity and any commissioning or technical-support requirements in your enquiry.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum drilling depth of the RC500L?

The catalogue maximum is 400 m. Achievable depth depends on hole diameter, formation, tooling and air supply, and must be confirmed for the project.

Are the hammer, rods and compressor included?

The scope of supply is confirmed in the quotation. List the hammer, bits, rods, compressor and spares you require; they are not assumed to be included with every rig.

What information should I send for a quotation?

Send the target hole diameter, depth, formation, compressor pressure and flow, drill rod requirements, quantity and delivery country.
