For some applications such as bluestone, ryalite, and granite, Tebco Core Barrels are more efficient for pendulum-style borers. Tebco Core Barrels are set up by our experienced fabricators, with the cutting teeth at just the right angle for the most effective rock coring. Since they have less contact surface area, Core Barrels also produce less wear and tear on the borer. With such a wide range of Core Barrel sizes, we will have the right one for your machine, whether it’s a small rig or a large one.
The teeth are easily replaceable and the quality hard facing on the outside of the barrel means your Core Barrel will remain operational for a long time. The lower barrel which holds the cutting teeth is strengthened even more to prevent any distortion, as always delivering top quality, effective drilling to make your job easier.
Thin Cutting Edge
Core Barrels can excel where conventional augers and hammers fail, as the teeth on a Core Barrel are much sharper and harder. Additionally, the cutting action is more effective at breaking up rock and clay. Core Barrels can also cut through hard rock, because the Barrel will “crush” or “pulverise” the rock as it drills through it.
A Core Barrel will also produce a much straighter and cleaner borehole than other equipment. This is due to their thin cutting edge, and the fact that a Core Barrel will not “walk” or “jump” like an auger or hammer bit. As a result, you will spend less time having to ream out the borehole.
If you are looking for a drilling method that is more effective than an auger or hammer, then a Core Barrel may be the right choice for you.
