The Gill Beetle is a used vertical drill — a category of machine also commonly referred to as a down-the-hole drill — designed for boring holes through rock and earth in demanding drilling applications. Vertical drills of this type are widely used in mining, quarrying, construction, and geotechnical work wherever precise, powerful hole-making is required at depth.
This machine is classed as DTH (down-the-hole) and is capable of drilling holes ranging from 4 inches to 24 inches in diameter. Notably, it is not restricted to vertical work alone; it can drill at horizontal angles and every orientation in between, making it a versatile tool for a wide range of site conditions and project requirements. A hydraulic table is fitted, providing an opening capacity of up to 9 inches.
The drill comes equipped with three DTH hammers. The IR-360 hammer is included with two bits sized at 8.5 inches and 7.5 inches. The IR-350 hammer comes paired with a 6.25-inch bit. The smaller Drill King 4-inch DTH hammer is supplied with two bits at 5.5 inches and 4.5 inches respectively, covering the lower end of the machine's diameter range.
Completing the package is approximately 200 feet of 4-inch drill rods and 150 feet of high-pressure air hose, providing a ready-to-deploy setup with substantial reach for deep drilling operations. The machine is located in Kentucky, USA, and is offered in used condition.
