Sandvik Rock Tools for top hammer drilling are designed to transmit intensive impact energy and rotational force into the rock with the least possible loss of energy. The result is good rock breakage, high penetration rates and high productivity. This, together with optimal hole quality, great reliability and long service life, gives the best possible blasting results, outstanding drill-steel economy and low total cost.

Small Hole Drilling Tools
This product group includes rock tools for drilling holes from 32 to 51 mm (1.25” – 2.00”) in diameter using both hand-held and small rig-mounted rock drills. It includes plughole drill steels, integral drill steels, tapered rods and cone bits, shank rods and the extension drilling tool systems.

Bench drilling tools
This product group includes rock tools for all surface benching applications using top hammer rock drills. It consists mainly of drill bits, threaded drill rods and coupling sleeves, as well as shank adapters for most makes of rock drill. It includes tool systems of different dimensions for drilling holes from 45 to 152 mm (1.75” – 6.00”) in diameter, usually to depths of up to 25 meters (82’).

Shank Adapters
While every component in the drill string is crucial, the shank adapter must be engineered to accept punishment like no other. Its function is to transmit impact energy from the rock-drill piston, as well as rotation torque, into the drill string with no losses. It must withstand and transmit up to 6300 blows per minute from the piston continually, with great endurance and dependability. With this in mind, Sandvik manufactures quality shank adapters for most brands of rock drill.
