What it changes in the field

In practice, this 116 T6 core barrel delivers:

• Better-preserved cores thanks to the double-tube design and bearing guidance.
• Fewer unplanned stops, resulting in higher drilling productivity.
• Fast adaptation to sensitive formations via triplex conversion (transparent liner to protect and visualize the core).
• Simplified maintenance with a modular design and proven components.

FAQ about the 116 T6 core barrel (Technidrill)

1. What is a double-tube core barrel?
A double-tube core barrel uses an outer tube for cutting and an inner tube to collect the core. This setup protects the sample and improves core quality.

2. What’s different with the triplex option?
The triplex option adds a transparent liner inside the inner tube, improving protection and visibility of the core—especially in fragile formations.

3. Is the 116 T6 suitable for all ground conditions?
Yes. Its reinforced construction and bearing system allow efficient operation in both soft soils and hard rock.

4. What lengths are available for the 116 T6 model?
The 116 T6 core barrel is available in 1,500 mm and 3,000 mm lengths.

5. Can I upgrade my 116 T6 to a triplex version later?
Absolutely. Technidrill provides a complete triplex conversion kit compatible with this model.
