Demolition & Recycling Drilling

Demolition & Recycling Drill Bits & Equipment

In the demolition and recycling industry, drill bits play a crucial role in selective dismantling and material processing. From core sampling concrete to assess structural integrity, to drilling precision holes for controlled blasting, to preparing scrap materials for shearing and separation — the right drilling tools make demolition safer, faster, and more cost-effective.

International Driller's Supply has been equipping demolition and recycling contractors since 1960. As the world's largest distributor for Mitsubishi Materials drilling products and the largest US distributor for Terelion, we provide the heavy-duty rock drilling tools that stand up to the abrasive, unpredictable materials encountered in demolition work. Reinforced concrete, structural steel, masonry, and mixed rubble — our bits handle it all.

Demolition & Recycling Applications We Serve

Controlled Demolition & Selective Dismantling

Controlled demolition requires precision drilling for explosive placement, hydraulic splitting, and chemical expansion methods. Every hole must be accurately placed and cleanly drilled to ensure predictable structural collapse patterns. Our cross-bit and button-bit designs provide the accuracy that controlled demolition demands, whether you're dropping a high-rise or selectively removing a bridge section.

Concrete Core Sampling & Assessment

Before any major demolition project begins, engineers need core samples to assess concrete strength, rebar placement, and structural condition. Our drilling tools provide clean, consistent cores that give engineers the data they need to plan safe, efficient demolition sequences. We carry core bit sizes suitable for standard assessment protocols.

Material Processing & Recycling

Concrete recycling, scrap metal processing, and demolition waste management all involve drilling operations for material handling, sizing, and separation. Our DTH and top hammer tools are built to withstand the abrasive conditions of recycled materials — rebar-embedded concrete, mixed rubble, and industrial waste that would destroy lesser tools.

Rock Breaking & Secondary Breaking

Oversize material from demolition and quarrying requires secondary breaking before it can be processed. Our top hammer and DTH systems drill the holes needed for hydraulic splitters, chemical expanders, and small-charge breaking methods. Fast, accurate hole placement means higher throughput and lower processing costs.

Demolition Drilling Products

We stock a comprehensive inventory of drilling tools suited for the demanding conditions of demolition and recycling work:

DTH Bits & Hammers

Down-the-hole systems for large-diameter hole drilling in concrete and rock for controlled demolition, hydraulic splitting, and blast hole preparation. DTH delivers straight, consistent holes even in heavily reinforced structures.

Top Hammer Tools

Top hammer bits and rods for secondary breaking, rock bolt installation, and general demolition drilling. Versatile systems that handle the mixed and unpredictable materials common in demolition environments.

Parts & Accessories

Bits, rods, couplings, shanks, and replacement components. Demolition work is hard on tools — our extensive parts inventory ensures rapid replacement so your crews stay productive on the jobsite.
