Rotary Blast Hole Drill Rigs

Pit Viper 271

Rotary tricone and down the hole drilling of 171mm to 270mm (6-3/4” to 10-5/8”) holes

The Pit Viper 271 is the drill that put the Pit Viper series on the map. It operates in almost every surface mining application out there – gold, copper, coal, iron ore, phosphate, silver – you name it, the PV-271 has probably drilled it.

When it comes to drilling single-pass holes up to 59 ft¹ (18 m) with diameters up to 270 mm (10-5/8 in), the PV-271 has proven itself time and time again. With an 81,000 lb (36,741 kg)* bit load capacity, the PV-271 has probably drilled it.

The Pit Viper 271 features a patented cable feed system with automatic tensioning for improved component life and low total cost of operation, and options for both diesel and electric powerpack make the PV-271 a flexible option for any type of operation.
