Adapter Coupling
Adapter couplings are used to connect drilling components of different sizes or standards, ensuring compatibility and continuity within a core drilling system.
Role in the Core Drilling System
Adapter couplings provide dimensional and thread compatibility between drilling components that would otherwise be incompatible. They are used to connect drill rods, core barrels, or other system components of different sizes or standards, enabling flexible system configurations without compromising operational safety or performance.
Product Description
Spenta Engineers manufactures adapter couplings designed for accurate alignment, secure connections, and reliable performance in core drilling operations. Each adapter coupling is precision-engineered to maintain proper load transfer, torque transmission, and dimensional integrity when integrating mixed system components.
Standard Sizes, Lengths & Manufacturing
Adapter couplings are manufactured to suit standard core drilling sizes including AQ, BQ, NQ, HQ, and PQ. Components are produced from high-strength alloy steel using precision machining processes. Controlled heat treatment is applied to enhance strength, durability, and resistance to wear under drilling loads.
