Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a rock drill bit for a percussive drilling hammer positioned at the cutting end of a hammer. The drill bit includes a head, an elongated shank connected to the head at a front end of the bit, a head-shank transition area where the head connects to the shank, an anvil at the rear end of the shank for receiving the impact of the piston, a plurality of buttons provided at the front face of the head configured to engage the material to be crushed in the intended direction of drilling, and a plurality of flushing passages extending through the head and having at least one opening at the front face of the head. An angle formed between the head and the shank at the head-shank transition area is greater than 100 degrees.

Abstract: A tube arrangement comprising a first metal tube, a second metal tube, a first sleeve part, and a second sleeve part. The first and second sleeve parts are threadedly connected to the first and second metal tubes. The first and second metal tubes are configured to be joined via a butt weld joint. The first sleeve and the second sleeve are configured to be joined via a second butt weld joint. The first sleeve part comprises a first outer surface extending at a first acute angle (?) to an axial center axis of the first sleeve part and the second sleeve part comprises a second outer surface extending at a second acute angle (?) to an axial center axis of the second sleeve part. The present disclosure also relates to a furnace.
