What is the material of the water well drilling rig

 Water well drilling rigs use a wide variety of materials, and different parts have different material requirements. Generally speaking, the main materials used in water well drilling rigs are:


1. Steel

Carbon steel:

Widely used in the frame, chassis, drill pipe and other load-bearing parts of the drilling rig. Carbon steel has high strength and toughness, the price is relatively low.

Alloy steel:

Used in the manufacture of drill bits, drill pipe joints and other wear parts. Alloy steel strength, hardness and wear resistance than carbon steel.

Stainless steel:

used in the manufacture of some corrosion-resistant components, such as hydraulic systems in the piping and valves.


2. cast iron
Gray cast iron: used in the manufacture of machine tool beds, bases and other components that require greater rigidity.
Ductile cast iron: high strength and toughness, commonly used in the manufacture of gears, bearings and other transmission components.

3. Non-ferrous metals
Aluminum alloy: light weight, high strength, commonly used in the manufacture of drilling rigs and shells.
Copper alloy: good thermal and electrical conductivity, commonly used in the manufacture of electrical components.

4. non-metallic materials
Rubber: used in the manufacture of seals, gaskets and so on.
Plastic: used to manufacture some non-load-bearing parts, such as control panels, instrument panels and so on.

Different parts of the material requirements

Drill bits:

require high hardness and good wear resistance, usually alloy steel or tungsten carbide.

Drill pipes:

high strength and good toughness are required, usually high-strength steel pipes are used.

Hydraulic system:

corrosion-resistant and high-pressure-resistant materials are required, usually stainless steel and wear-resistant alloy.

Transmission system:

high strength and good abrasion resistance are required, usually alloy steel and ductile cast iron are used.

Control system:

relatively low material requirements, usually carbon steel, aluminum alloy and plastic.

How to extend the life of drill pipe

  1. When using a new drill pipe, the drilling rig manufacturer should make sure that the wire fasteners on the front cut-off (protecting the shaft head) of the drill bit are also close to the new one. A ring-buckled rotating head can easily damage the wire fasteners of the new drill pipe, resulting in leaks, snaps, and loosening, and so on. 2. In the use of drill pipe for a drilling, should be first “grinding new buckle”, which consists of, first smeared with silk buckle oil, and then use the drill rig full torque, and then open the buckle, and then smeared with silk buckle oil and then open, and so on for three times, you can avoid the new wear and buckle. 3. As far as possible to maintain the drill pipe under the ground and on the ground in a straight line, so as to avoid part of the side of the wire buckle force and cause unwanted wear and tear, or even jump buckle, pay attention to the rig anchored to avoid the construction of the force to move is very important. 4. The buckle...

What are the Basic Maintenance Methods for Water Well Drilling Rigs

  Cleaning: After every day's operation, clean the mud, oil, and other debris on the rig in time to keep the rig clean. Checking lubrication: regularly check  the lubrication points to ensure that the lubricant is sufficient and the grease is clean. Fasteners check: you can check whether the bolts and nuts of each part are loose and tighten them in time. Hydraulic system checks: you can check whether the hydraulic oil level is normal, whether there is no leakage phenomenon, and whether the hydraulic oil is clean. Lubrication system maintenance: regular replacement of lubricating oil, grease, cleaning oil filter, and oil tank. Hydraulic system maintenance: regular replacement of hydraulic oil, cleaning hydraulic filter. Cooling system maintenance: clean the radiator, and check the coolant level. Transmission system maintenance: check the tightness of the transmission belt, and replace the worn transmission belt. Electrical system maintenance: check whether the line is firm...

Use and maintenance of drill bits

Use and maintenance of drill bits: 1. Choose a suitable drill bit:  Before using a drill bit, it is necessary to select the appropriate type and specification of drill bit based on drilling conditions and needs. 2. Installing the drill bit:  When installing the drill bit, it is necessary to ensure that the connection between the drill bit and the drill pipe is firm, and to correctly install the cutting teeth of the drill bit. 3. Maintain appropriate drilling speed and pressure during the drilling process:  Excessive drilling speed and pressure can lead to premature wear and damage of the drill bit, while too small can affect drilling efficiency. 4. Regular inspection and maintenance:  Regularly check the wear of the drill bit and replace severely worn components in a timely manner. At the same time, it is necessary to regularly clean and lubricate the drill bit to extend its service life. 5. Storage and preservation:  When storing and preserving drill bits, it i...
