There are many different types of bits, some with inserts and others with buttons, and they come in many different sizes. To further complicate matters, no two rocks are the same. Consequently, bit wear differs. There’s only one good piece of advice we can give you – don’t make a decision before talking to us. And remember, thanks to Epiroc Secoroc's extensive service network, a good regrind is only a phone call away.
