Ditch Witch Drill Rods for JT1220 / JT1220M1

Drill Rods for Ditch Witch JT1220 / JT1220M1 We offer new HDD drill rods compatible with Ditch Witch JT1220 and JT1220M1 drilling rigs, equipped with the DW 1.47 thread system. These drill rods are designed for professional Horizontal Directional Drilling works, where reliable torque transfer, pulling force resistance and stable drilling fluid flow are essential. They are suitable for utility installation, water and sewage networks, gas pipelines, power cable projects, fibre optic works and other trenchless construction applications. The rods are manufactured from certified heat-treated alloy steel, grade S135. This material provides high resistance to torsion, pulling loads and fatigue, which is important when working in hard, compact and demanding ground conditions. The drill rods are produced as one-piece, hot-forged components. This monolithic construction helps reduce the risk of cracking in the tool joint area and provides better durability compared to welded drill pipes. Precision-machined DW 1.47 threaded connections ensure reliable make-up, tight connection and proper drilling fluid transmission during operation. The rods are compatible with Ditch Witch JT1220 and JT1220M1 drilling systems.
