Rotary Head
Rotary drill heads for waterwell and reverse circulation (RC) drilling are used to create deep holes in the ground for water extraction, mineral exploration, and other purposes. They are typically made of hardened steel and are equipped with cutting teeth that rotate to break up the rock and soil.

- Diameter: Rotary drill heads are available in a variety of diameters to suit different drilling conditions. The most common diameters for waterwell and RC drilling range from 6 inches to 24 inches.
- Length: Rotary drill heads are typically 3 to 6 feet long.
- Weight: Rotary drill heads can weigh anywhere from a few hundred pounds to several thousand pounds, depending on their size and configuration.
- Material: Rotary drill heads are typically made of hardened steel. Some drill heads also have carbide or diamond cutting inserts.
Features
- Cutting teeth: Rotary drill heads are equipped with cutting teeth that rotate to break up the rock and soil. The type of cutting teeth used depends on the type of rock and soil to be drilled through.
- Pilot bit: Some rotary drill heads have a pilot bit in the center of the drill head. The pilot bit creates a small hole in the ground ahead of the main drill head, which helps to guide the drill and prevent it from wandering.
- Flutes: Rotary drill heads have flutes along their sides. The flutes allow for the removal of cuttings from the hole while drilling.
