Forged HDD Drill Rod Construction
Double Horse Firestick 1 HDD drill rods use one-piece forged construction, providing a strong and durable rod designed for the repeated loads encountered during horizontal directional drilling.
The rods are manufactured from high-strength alloy steel and are designed to withstand the torque, tensile forces and demanding operating conditions associated with HDD drilling.
High-Strength S-135 Alloy Steel
The drill rods are manufactured from S-135 high-strength alloy steel, providing the strength and toughness required for demanding directional drilling applications.
One-Piece Forged Construction
Each rod is forged from a single piece to provide a robust construction designed for the demanding conditions experienced during HDD operations.
Precision-Engineered Threaded Connections
The threaded connections are designed for high-torque HDD applications, helping provide reliable connections between individual rods throughout the drilling process.
Double-Shouldered Design
The double-shouldered connection design enhances connection performance while maintaining a large inside diameter to support efficient drilling fluid flow through the drill string.
Why Choose Forged HDD Drill Rods?
Drill rods are exposed to significant torque, thrust, tensile forces and repeated loading during horizontal directional drilling. Using high-quality rods that are correctly matched to your Vermeer® drill rig is important for reliable performance.
Double Horse HDD drill rods are designed with strength and toughness in mind for demanding HDD applications.
Key features include:
- One-piece forged construction for strength and durability
- S-135 high-strength alloy steel for demanding drilling applications
- Precision-engineered threaded connections for high-torque applications
- Double-shouldered connection design for improved connection performance
- Large internal diameter to support drilling fluid flow
- High strength and toughness for demanding horizontal directional drilling
- Available for selected Vermeer® 711 to 3650 drill rigs
What Are HDD Drill Rods Used For?
HDD drill rods connect the drill head and downhole tooling to a horizontal directional drilling rig. They transmit the torque and thrust generated by the drill rig through the drill string while allowing drilling fluid to flow through the inside of the rods.
As the pilot bore progresses, additional drill rods are connected to extend the drill string. This means the rods and threaded connections are repeatedly exposed to high loads throughout the drilling operation.
How to Choose the Right Vermeer® Drill Rod
Choosing the correct Vermeer® HDD drill rod depends on your drill rig model, rod dimensions, connection specifications and drilling application.
Before ordering replacement or additional drill rods, confirm:
- Your Vermeer® drill rig model
- Existing drill rod size and connection
- Required rod specifications
- The type of HDD work being performed
- Compatibility with your existing drill string and tooling
If you are unsure which rod you require, contact No Dig Equipment with your machine model and existing rod details. Our team can help you identify the appropriate drill rod for your equipment.
