Jakarta, Indonesia – September 2025 – With infrastructure projects booming in Southeast Asia, contractors are relying on down-the-hole (DTH) hammer bits for deep drilling. YKdrill’s DTH bits are delivering strong performance in road and dam construction.
Large-scale construction projects in Indonesia, Vietnam, and the Philippines often require boreholes exceeding 300 meters. Contractors need tools that maintain penetration speed while withstanding extreme pressures.
YKdrill DTH hammer bits are manufactured with precision forging and high-quality carbides. Their optimized airflow system improves energy transfer, resulting in faster drilling rates and lower air consumption.
In a hydro dam project, YKdrill DTH bits reduced average drilling time per hole by 22%. Contractors also reported lower compressor fuel costs, improving overall project economics.
As Southeast Asia invests in infrastructure, YKdrill’s DTH bits are expected to gain wider adoption, strengthening its market presence.
