Harshit Pneumatic LLP

A shank rod adapter, also known as a striking bar, is a part of a rock drilling tool that transmits the energy from the drill rig to the drill bit: 

• FunctionThe shank adapter transfers impact energy and rotation torque from the rock drill piston to the drill string without losing energy. It also transmits feed force and flushing medium to the drill string. 
• ApplicationShank rod adapters are used in a variety of applications, including water well drilling, rock splitting, copper mining, and granite quarrying. 
• ConstructionShank rod adapters are made from alloy steels that are heat treated to withstand the high impact power of drilling. 
• VulnerabilityShank rod adapters are vulnerable to damage in the harsh working environment of rock drilling operations. The most common types of damage include fracture, end face damage, thread wear, and drill lug breakage. 
• SpecificationThe hardness and specification of the shank rod adapter can affect the rock drilling speed and the life of the rock drill. 

Product Description. Male Shank Adapter are ideal for drifting, tunneling & extension applications where high bending stresses are present, and female shank adapters are used when the drilling space is limited and the total feed length is important.
