GM Pneumatics manufactures and supplies Down-The-Hole hammers and drill bits for hard-rock water-well drilling, mining and quarrying. Assembled in Hyderabad, priced 30–40% below imported premium brands, with stock items dispatched in 24–48 hours.
In hard-rock regions like Rajasthan, Telangana and Karnataka, reaching groundwater means drilling through granite and basalt — work that needs a DTH hammer. Reliable, affordable tools put water within reach of the communities that need it most.
Premium imported DTH tools carry a heavy price tag that small drilling contractors struggle to afford. GM Pneumatics offers comparable engineering, assembled in India, at 30–40% below imported premium brands — judged on cost per metre drilled.
When an imported hammer fails on site, contractors wait days or weeks for replacement parts. GM Pneumatics is based in Hyderabad — stock hammers and bits ship within 24–48 hours, keeping drilling rigs running and contractors profitable.
From 3½" water well hammers to 8" deep mining systems — GMP covers every application with a full range of hammers and compatible bits.

How to choose: find your hammer — ours or another brand — then pick the hole size you need. Quote the model and shank, e.g. GMP-B65, DHD360 shank. All button bits come in flat, concave or convex face. OB = overburden bits for casing advancement in loose or unstable ground.
Other brand and model names are trademarks of their respective owners, shown only to indicate shank compatibility; GM Pneumatics is not affiliated with them.
Three words that answer every contractor's biggest question about their drilling tools supplier.
Every GMP hammer and bit is assembled in Hyderabad, Telangana. No import delays, no customs clearance, no weeks of waiting. Stock items ship within 24–48 hours of order confirmation.
Sandvik, Atlas Copco, and other imported brands carry a heavy premium. GM Pneumatics uses EN24/EN36 alloy steel and YG8/YG11C carbide, at pricing that makes economic sense for contractors — judged on cost per metre drilled.
8 hammer sizes from 3½" to 8". 9 bit sizes including overburden. Standard and OB systems. Water well to deep mining — GMP covers every application so you deal with one supplier, not five.
Non-standard sizes, special thread types, specific carbide button configurations for unique formations — We accept OEM and project-specific orders with a lead time of 7–15 days.
The materials and processes behind every GMP hammer and bit — because quality in drilling tools is the difference between a completed borewell and a stuck rig.
High-tensile nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy steel for maximum impact resistance and fatigue life. Not mild steel, not carbon steel — the same grade used by leading global manufacturers.
Carbide buttons graded for the right balance of hardness and toughness, with spherical or ballistic shapes to suit your rock.
Hammer components are heat-treated for a hard, wear-resistant surface over a tough core, so they stand up to continuous impact.
Top subs use API Reg pin threads (2-3/8", 3½", 4½") to fit standard drill pipe. Bits are made with DHD, QL, SD or Mission shanks to fit the hammer you already run.
Every GMP bit is listed against the GMP hammers and the shank standards it fits, so ordering the right replacement is simple — see the shank guide in our catalogue.
GMP tools are engineered for the most demanding drilling environments across water, mining, and construction.
The primary application for GMP tools. Drilling borewells through granite, basalt, and hard gneiss formations to reach groundwater in India's hard-rock states. Hammers 3½" to 6" are ideal.
Open-pit mining, blast hole drilling, and quarry operations in hard rock formations. GMP's 6" to 8" hammer range delivers the penetration rates and durability that mining operations demand.
GMP's OB 9" and OB 9½" overburden system bits are designed for casing advancement through loose, unstable, and collapsing formations — critical for foundation piling and infrastructure projects.
GMP is stocked and available through authorised distributors in India's key drilling markets. Export enquiries handled through our export arm, Swiftlyport.
We are actively seeking distributors in Odisha, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Chhattisgarh, and Gujarat.
GMP exports through Swiftlyport under EEPC registration. Indian-assembled drilling tools offer a significant cost advantage in emerging markets.
