Brokk Spotlights TE160 Hydraulic Drifter Rock Drill
Brokk’s TE160 hydraulic drifter rock drill from TEI Rock Drills is ideal for tunneling applications.
The Brokk/TEI combination eliminates fatigue caused by operating the heavy handheld tools, improves overall drilling accuracy and promotes safety by allowing operators to stand farther away from the drilling site. With a Brokk machine and the TE160 attachment, operators can consistently drill to 20-foot depths while standing well out of harm’s way.
Operators can take the 45-inch-tall Brokk 100 units into areas with 6-foot height clearances, which make them great for workspaces with little headroom. In addition, when the arms and stabilizer legs are folded in, the Brokk 100 is less than 31 inches wide, narrow enough to fit through doorways or onto elevators at demolition sites.
At just under 26 inches long, the TE160 is the smallest drill attachment from TEI, yet it packs a punch. The TE160 delivers 35 to 60 foot-pounds of impact energy at 5,000 to 6,500 blows per minute. The drill also produces 100 pound-feet of torque and reaches rotation speeds of up to 250 rpm, which makes it an accurate and faster alternative to jackleg drilling through brick, concrete and rock. 800.621.7856; brokk.com
