KAT DRILLING
1 / 2
Rock drilling tools manufacturer produces shank adapters for most models of current prevailing rock drill machines. All shank adapters are carburized, CNC manufactured, and made from premium steel.
This ensures superior toughness and anti-fatigue strength to meet the most demanding drilling conditions. Around 300 different shank adapters suitable for various series drifters are available.
The task of the shank adapter is to transmit rotation torque, feed force, impact energy and flushing medium to the drill string (extension drill rods, drifting drill steels). These adapters are designed to withstand the high impact power of modern rock drills and made from specially selected material which is hardened through cauterizing.
Generally better suited for drifting, tunneling and extension applications where high bending stresses are present.
Used when the drilling space is limited and the total feed length is important, such as underground roof bolting.

A: All shank adapters are made from premium selected steel and undergo CNC manufacturing and carburization to ensure maximum durability and strength.
A: Male adapters are ideal for drifting and tunneling with high bending stress. Female adapters are preferred when drilling space is restricted, such as in underground roof bolting.
A: Yes, the range includes approximately 300 different shank adapters suitable for series drifters like Atlas Copco, Tamrock, and Garden Diver.
A: The shank adapter transmits rotation torque, feed force, impact energy, and flushing medium from the rock drill to the drill string.
A: By using specialized carburizing heat treatment and precision CNC machining, the adapters achieve superior toughness and resistance to fatigue in demanding conditions.
A: Yes, specifications are available for many models including Sandvik HLX 5, HLX 5 T, HFX 5 T, and RDX5 series with various thread types like R32, T38, and T45.
