Why RH560?

The Greatest Performer Yet

The mining industry continues to demand even higher levels of productivity. Performance takes precedence thanks reduced handling and less downtime of the RH560 hammer.

Why RH560?

Up to 15 % increase in penetration rate

With its enhanced air cycle and piston design, the RH560 delivers higher striking power leading to more power output. With less inside parts this hammer provides outstanding reliability. We have simply combined the reliability of our RH460 yet keeping the simplicity of RH510. RH560 is here to stay.

Why RH560?

Great Start With Smooth Collaring

With an ability to build up pressure gradually, the RH560 hammer starts up smoothly allowing for better and quicker collaring in any rock condition. Even in complex rock formations and against uneven surfaces. Exact collaring and straight holes are prerequisites for productive drilling with maximum advance, and lower overall costs. This saves overall drilling time and reduced frustration for the driller.

Why RH560?

No Foot Valve For Trouble-Free Performance

In almost any ground conditions RH560 will give you higher productivity, improved reliability and better drilling economy through less air consumption. Delivers the high impact and energy transfer needed to keep you going on and on.

Why RH560?

Higher Power Output For The Same Air Consumption

With a focus on optimized air cycle, the hammer improves reliability and economy through cutting air consumption, increasing power and improving lubrication. This allows for drilling bigger sized holes at the same speed as a smaller hole with a standard hammer, giving high productivity in variable ground conditions. Not a patented piston.

Feature

Optimized air cycle

Value Added
  • Lower fuel consumption
  • More responsive drilling
  • Up to 15% higher penetration rate
  • Less prone of breakage
Benefit
  • Low air consumption (15% less than before)
  • Faster building up of air pressure
  • Higher frequency means more impact/minute
  • Increased power output
Why RH560?

Superior Drilling Accuracy

The RH560 delivers high performance and added value to most drilling applications, thanks to the mechanical efficiency between the piston and drill bit that optimizes impact energy transmission to boost penetration rates.

1 Bit Retaining System

More evenly distributed stress on the retainer shoulder leads to less wear on the bit.

2
2 Standard QL Shank

Avoids the problem of availability and special orders. With a well proven standard shank you will not run into reliability issues.

3
3 No Foot Valve

No problem related to foot valve i.e breakage.

4
4 Robust Piston

Reliability. With porting being done externally, the piston is free from cross drilled holes and therefore reduces stress induced failures.

5
5 Oil Grooves

The oil grooves ensure constant and consistent lubrication between the piston and internal parts which reduces galling related failures. When the air and oil mix passes the oil grooves they create turbulence, which acts as a dynamic seal. This ensures minimal air leakage.

6
6 V-Lock System

The V-lock system is designed to prevent movement of internal components. By preventing movement of its components galling related failures are reduced.

Why RH560?

RH560 A Big Hammer with Bigger Advantages

  • Simple overall design minimizes failures
  • Optimized, piston and bit design maximizes energy transfer efficiency
  • Higher penetration rate up to 15%
  • Low air consumption meaning less fuel consumption yet more power
  • No foot valve meaning no small parts causing unnecessary breakdown
  • Less downtime means less handling of the hammer means less risk for injuries
