 RD414 rock drill
Construction
• Compact modular construction
• Only three main body components
• Percussion mechanism and stabilizer
in the same body
• Rock drill attached to the carriage
from one body part

5 .
 Serviceability
Simple modular construction
• Simple construction allows quick
maintenance

6 .
 Main components Percussion cartridge
Flushing housing
Body cylinder

Rear cover

Stabilizer

Gear box Rotation motor

7 .
 Carriage connection

• Only 4 bolts
• A hub to carry axial forces
• Option to circulate shank
lubrication oil through the
hub

Hydraulic stabilizer
• Efficient dampening of shock waves from the rock
ÞLonger life of rock tools
ÞHigher reliability
• Better bit-rock contact
ÞLess harmful tensile stresses on tools
ÞThreads keep tighten
ÞLonger life and reliability of tools and rock drill
• No direct recoils to body parts (stabilizer acts as hydraulic
axial bearing)
ÞBetter lifetime of body parts
ÞLess load to side and carriage bolts

 Flushing head

• Common flushing head with

RD314 face drilling version,
only shank bushing is
different
• Shank bearing always ø38,
shank codes:
• T38: 7304-7672-01
• R32: 7803-7672-01
