Characteristics of DTH Hammer

Gedco Down-The-Hole Hammers, available in high and low air pressure, range in size from 3.5″ – 10″ and are available with or without foot valve. Our DTH Hammers use our own Gedco bits, as well as a wide range of industry-standard DTH hammer bits.

Choosing the correct hammer is determined by the hole size and the rock formation. The hammer size should match the hole dimension as closely as possible to ensure cuttings are properly removed from the hole.

1. Higher Penetration Rates
