Product Details

## Overview The Kaishan L2.5 is a 2.5-inch class down-the-hole (DTH) hammer engineered for reliable rock drilling in small to medium-diameter applications. As part of Kaishan’s drilling tools line, this hammer is built to deliver consistent impact energy and efficient air usage, making it a practical choice for quarrying, mining, water well drilling, and construction projects. Its compact design suits rigs with limited air capacity while maintaining solid penetration rates in medium-hard to hard rock formations. ## Technical Features The L2.5 DTH hammer uses a valveless or simple valve design to reduce wear points and simplify maintenance. The piston and internal cylinder are precision-machined from high-quality alloy steel and heat-treated for enhanced durability. The hammer body is manufactured to withstand high-frequency impact and abrasive cuttings. It accepts standard button bits with a compatible shank, allowing contractors to match bit type to rock conditions. Air consumption is optimized for 2.5-inch hammers, typically requiring around 3–5 m³/min at 0.7–1.0 MPa, depending on rig setup. The connection thread is designed for secure coupling with drill pipes, reducing energy loss and improving drilling efficiency. ## Applications The Kaishan L2.5 is suitable for blast hole drilling in quarries and open-pit mines, water well and geothermal drilling where hole diameters range from approximately 64 mm to 76 mm, and construction projects such as foundation anchoring and rock bolting. It also performs well in exploration drilling and small-scale mining operations. The hammer can be used with various button bit designs, including flat face and drop center, to match different rock hardness and abrasiveness. ## Benefits Contractors choose the L2.5 for its balance of performance and cost. The hammer’s robust construction reduces downtime, while readily available spare parts and Kaishan’s global service network help keep projects on schedule. Its compatibility with common rigs and drill pipes makes it easy to integrate into existing fleets. With proper maintenance, the L2.5 delivers long service life and stable drilling results, lowering cost per meter in demanding conditions.

Working Principle

The Kaishan L2.5 DTH hammer operates on the principle of down-the-hole percussion. Compressed air is fed through the drill pipe to the hammer, where it drives a piston in a reciprocating motion. The piston strikes the shank of the drill bit, generating high-frequency impact energy that fractures the rock. Simultaneously, the air flows through the bit’s flushing holes to remove cuttings from the hole bottom and cool the bit. The hammer’s valve or valveless design controls the air distribution, ensuring efficient energy transfer and reliable operation. The rotation of the drill string indexes the bit, allowing new rock surfaces to be fractured with each impact. This combination of impact and rotation enables efficient drilling in hard rock formations. The L2.5 is designed to match air pressure and volume requirements, typically operating at 0.7–1.0 MPa, to deliver optimal penetration rates while minimizing air consumption. Its simple yet robust construction ensures dependable performance in demanding drilling conditions.
