6-Inch DTH Hammers

Drill King’s 6-inch DTH hammer lineup delivers high-frequency impact and high penetration rates for mid-size construction, mining, water well, and blast-hole applications. The standard design is available in three shank configurations — A600I, A600Q, and A600S — plus a heavy-duty variant, A600QHD. We also offer an exhaust-tube-free design, T600UCQ, with its own heavy-duty variant, T600UCQHD. Both platforms are built for speed and reliability with the same premium alloys.

Why Drill King?

Exhaust-Tube-Free Design

The T600UCQ series eliminates the exhaust tube entirely for maximum reliability.

Versatile Pressure Range

These hammers operate from 150–350 PSI (10.3–24.1 Bar), providing efficient performance at low pressure and high-speed penetration at 350 PSI.

High-Impact Frequency

At 1,455 blows per minute, our A600 hammers deliver consistent energy transfer to the bit for faster penetration in hard rock.

Blow-Tube-Free Design

The T600UC series eliminates the blow tube entirely, increasing reliability for mining, water well, and construction work.

Heavy-Duty Options

H.D. variants of the QL6 and QL60 add reinforced top subs, wear sleeves, and drive subs for extended service life in abrasive formations.

Extended Component Life

Premium alloys and wear-resistant surface treatments extend tool life and reduce operating cost.
