R™ Reverse Flank Wireline Drill Rod
Manufactured to the highest standards of quality and precision, Di-Corp offers a reverse-flank threaded wireline drill rod solution (R™) in Standard and LITE that improves your bottom line and increases your competitiveness.
Each stage of the process, from material selection to manufacturing, packaging and handling, is controlled and supported by an experienced team of professionals, so you can be confident that every rod that leaves our factory will perform to your expectations.
As with all Di-Corp drill rods, our Reverse Flank R™ Drill Rod has been engineered for maximum strength with greater torsional and tensile strength than competing options. Here are some additional benefits of our drill rods:
- Drills deeper and lasts longer
- Increases depth capacity and prevents drilling fluid loss
Di-Corp uses an environmentally friendly thread compound to reduce friction, allowing for the proper makeup of the joint with less torque and reduced thread wear and galling.
- Every rod is factory coated with this compound on the box and pin ends
- The use of this compound is MANDATORY for the initial makeup of the joint

*Depth capacity ratings are based on published industry values. Di-Corp uses comparable materials and manufacturing processes and is confident the same results will be achieved. It is important to note that the care and handling, in addition to drilling conditions, practices, and equipment, will play a significant role in the ultimate depth capacity and performance of any drill rod.
**Di-Corp tests its rod offering at an independent facility. Pullback is rated on a new, unused drill rod.
Each stage of the process, from material selection to manufacturing, packaging and handling, is controlled and supported by an experienced team of professionals, so you can be confident that every rod that leaves our factory will perform to your expectations.
