When it comes to drilling in tough, fractured, or abrasive rock conditions, your productivity depends on the strength and precision of your tooling. That’s why professionals in mining, construction, and tunneling choose T38 Retrac Button Bits—high-performance drill bits engineered for straight holes, fast penetration, and extended bit life.
Whether you're drilling for mining development, production blasting, or tunnel excavation, T38 Retrac Button Bits are the ideal solution for reliable, efficient, and cost-effective rock drilling.
What Are T38 Retrac Button Bits?
T38 Retrac Button Bits are top hammer rock drill bits with a T38 thread connection and a retrac body design. This retrac structure offers enhanced reaming capability, ideal for unstable or fractured rock where hole deviation is a risk. These bits are built with high-grade tungsten carbide buttons—available in spherical, ballistic, or parabolic shapes—to match various rock formations.
Designed for 64mm–102mm hole diameters, T38 Retrac Button Bits deliver precise energy transmission, long service life, and consistent hole quality.
Why Choose T38 Retrac Button Bits?
Superior Hole Straightness
The retrac shoulder design minimizes bit deviation, keeping drilling precise in loose, broken, or abrasive formations.
Increased Penetration Speed
Optimized button layouts and aggressive cutting angles allow T38 Retrac Button Bits to drill deeper, faster—reducing operational time and fuel consumption.
Extended Bit Life
Manufactured from premium heat-treated alloy steel and wear-resistant carbide, T38 Retrac Button Bits are built to endure extreme impact and abrasion.
Reliable Thread System
The T38 thread design ensures secure coupling with drill rods, maximizing energy efficiency and reducing rod slippage or thread wear.
Versatile Designs for Every Project
Choose from flat face, concave, or drop center face styles with multiple button configurations to match your specific rock conditions.
Common Applications
Underground Mining Development
Production Drilling in Hard Rock Mines
Tunneling and Civil Infrastructure Projects
Bench Drilling and Slope Stabilization
Rock Bolting and Anchoring Operations
Wherever precision, speed, and tool durability matter, T38 Retrac Button Bits deliver unmatched performance.
