Technical Advantages of Friction Welding on Our AWJ Rods
Friction welding offers major technical advantages for our AWJ rods. This precise assembly method maintains full compatibility with standard drilling equipment.
Our seamless tubes feature a homogeneous structure that significantly improves mechanical strength. The ends are made from heat-treated alloy steel, ensuring high resistance to wear and stress. Friction welding creates a strong, uniform bond between the end and tube with no weak spots, making it ideal for demanding drilling operations.
Typical Applications for Ø44.5 mm AWJ Rods
- Soil investigation drilling
- Installation of piezometric tubes or monitoring sensors
- Geotechnical drilling in urban areas or restricted-access sites
- Light or precision drilling in soft to medium soils
A complete and scalable Rod Range
Our PR rod line covers diameters from Ø44.5 mm to Ø140 mm, available in multiple thread types: AWJ, BWJ, RD50-6, API Reg, IF, FH, and more. This modularity allows you to tailor your drilling tools to the specific requirements of your geotechnical or construction project.
