DIPSTICK ASSEMBLY

BG 006 707 18C DIPSTICK ASSEMBLY When vital components of a rock drill, like a drifter or a hydraulic cylinder, are taken apart for service, many small parts need to be replaced. This particular kit contains a collection of seals, gaskets, and other wear items designed to facilitate the proper reassembly of such units. These components are crucial for maintaining the internal integrity and sealing of the system, whether it's handling high-pressure hydraulic fluid or compressed air.

The integrity of these internal components directly impacts the overall performance and reliability of your drilling rig. For instance, if seals within a drifter's impact mechanism begin to leak, the drifter will lose significant impact energy, leading to slower penetration rates and increased wear on other parts. Proper sealing also prevents contamination from entering sensitive hydraulic circuits, safeguarding expensive components from premature failure and ensuring consistent operation.

Common signs that these internal components are failing include visible leaks of hydraulic oil or air, a noticeable drop in the equipment's power, or erratic operation. To ensure maximum uptime and performance, it is always recommended to use a fresh DIPSTICK ASSEMBLY kit whenever a major component is opened for inspection or repair. Reusing old seals or worn components can lead to immediate leaks or rapid degradation of performance shortly after service, costing more in the long run.
