Full Technical Description

550 970 74B COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY A reliable supply of compressed air is essential for productive rock drilling. This set contains the primary wear components needed to rebuild your compressor and bring its performance back to factory specifications. Sufficient air pressure and volume are required to effectively clear cuttings from the borehole, which prevents the drill string from binding and increases the overall penetration rate.

These parts are fitted inside the main air compressor unit, a key system mounted on the rig's carrier. A worn compressor struggles to maintain pressure, leading to poor flushing and slower work. If the compressor also supplies air for the rock drill lubrication system, a failure can quickly lead to expensive drifter damage. Replacing worn internals as a complete set ensures a dependable, long-lasting repair.

Common signs that the compressor needs service include a noticeable drop in flushing pressure at the operator's controls, whining noises from the unit, or frequent high-temperature shutdowns. When these symptoms appear, an overhaul is recommended. For a successful installation, the work should be carried out in a clean space to avoid contaminating the new internal parts.
