- The manufacturing process of tapered drill rods involves high-precision machining techniques to ensure the tapers are consistent and meet stringent industry standards. The material selection is critical, with most rods made from high-strength alloy steels to withstand the rigorous demands of drilling applications. These rods are often heat-treated for increased durability and wear resistance.

Weighing about 2.5 lbs square foot - about the same as 1/4-inch think flat sheet fiberglass plate, the grating over the flume is cut into sections so that it can be easily removed. Handholds are then either cut into each section or a bar of the grating is removed at one end of a grating section to allow an operator's gloved hand to lift the grating section out of the way.
