Wilsonville / Oregon / United States
Rockmore Internationals roots began in 1948, with the establishment of the mining industry manufacturer, ThrowAway Bit Corporation. In 1996, ThrowAway became Rockmore International, a change that reflected the companys role as a worldwide producer of a line of rock drilling tools. In 1997 Rockmore acquired HP Rocbo GmbH, an Austrian manufacturer of surface and underground drill rods. This alignment enabled the company to bring its services to a worldwide market of rock drilling operations. The company manufactures a variety of rock drilling tools, including mining tools for surface and underground drilling; tunneling and civil engineering tools, such as drifting and tunneling, tapered, integral, extension and shank rods; construction drill and blast tools; quarry, aggregate and mineral tools; and down the hill and water well drilling tools. Rockmore International has manufacturing facilities located in Wilsonville, Ore., and Judenburg, Austria.
