LITE Wireline Drill Rod
When drill size and/or remote site mobilization becomes an issue, Drillers Edge offers a lighter weight drill rod alternative in deep hole (D), reverse flank (R), and standard wireline (WL) thread forms.
Reduces Weight, Drills Deeper, Lasts Longer
A variable wall thickness ensures a strong joint while decreasing the overall weight of the drill rod without compromising life.
- Weight reduction: N = 12% | H = 22% | P = 23%
- Allows for deep holes with smaller, lower powered drill
- Mobilization to site easier and less expensive (fly jobs)
- Ideal for demanding projects requiring hole deviation
Di-Corp uses an environmentally friendly thread compound to reduce friction. This allows for the proper makeup of the joint with less torque and reduced galling.
- Every rod is factory coated with this compound on the box and pin ends
- The use of this compound is MANDATORY for the initial make-up of the joint

*Depth capacity ratings are based on published industry values. Di-Corp uses comparable materials and manufacturing processes, and is confident the same results will be achieved. It is important to note that the care and handling, in addition to drilling conditions, practices, and equipment will play a significant role in the ultimate depth capacity and performance of any drill rod.
**Di-Corp is testing its rod offering at an independent facility and will publish values as they become available. Pullback is rated on a new, unused drill rod.
Features & Benefits
Quality Materials & Workmanship
Light weight wireline drill rod is manufactured using high quality alloy steel tubing with same mechanical properties as parallel wall. This allows for a thinner midbody to increase overall flexibility.
Each stage of the process, from material selection to manufacturing, packaging and handling, is controlled and supported by an experienced team — you can be confident that every rod that leaves our factory will perform to your expectations.
- High quality alloy steel tubing with same mechanical properties as parallel wall
- Thinner mid body for increased flexibility
- Treated to reduce bent rods
- Through-hardened box and pin ends maximize joint strength and increase rod life
Precision Machined Threads
Drillers Edge joints are designed to be more secure. After a final quench and temper heat treatment, threads are precision machined then further hardened to ensure more consistent wear resistance, significantly less galling of both the pin and box threads, and less chance of the joint pulling apart.
- Available in standard wireline (WL), deep hole (D), and reverse flank (R) thread forms
- Complete line of accessory products are manufactured to the same precision
Identification
- Pin ends are stamped with a code for easy traceability
- “D” LITE drill rods have one identification groove behind the pin end while “WL” LITE drill rods have three
- End cap decals are used to identify the product once packaged for shipping
Packaging
- All rods are packaged and sold in bundles
- The entire length of the rod is coated with Krown rust protection oil
- Box and pin ends are protected with plastic end caps to ensure the anti-galling thread compound does not get contaminated or removed before first use
- Hexagonal bundle end caps further protect the rod ends during shipping and make them easier to stack
