S83 Pneumatic Air Leg Rock Drill for Mining and Tunneling

Product Overview

The S83 is a pneumatic air leg rock drill designed for rock-drilling work within the stated 34–45 mm borehole range. With a listed working air pressure of 0.63 MPa, it provides an air-powered drilling solution for mining, tunnelling, quarrying, and construction-related rock drilling.

With an overall length of 688 mm and a weight of 33.4 kg, the S83 has a clearly defined equipment profile for handling and project planning. Its supplied technical data lists a percussive frequency of at least 41 Hz, air consumption of no more than 53.3 L/s, and a drilling depth of up to 6 m.

SHENLI manufactures rock drills and pneumatic breakers, with complete machines and related spare parts available from the factory. Discuss the drilling setup and maintenance requirements together, so your purchase covers more than the drill itself.

Will the S83 Fit Your Mine?

For a mine manager, the first question is practical: can this drill fit the operation without creating avoidable changes to existing supplies and maintenance routines?

Start with these four checks:

Your site requirement What to confirm before ordering
Planned drilling work Hole diameter, depth, direction and rock conditions
Available compressed air Supply at the working face and the number of tools operating together
Existing drill steel Shank dimensions, rod lengths and bit connection
Working space Clearance for the drill, air leg and rod changes

For mines in Peru, Bolivia, Brazil and other Latin American markets, purchasing also means planning the journey from the receiving port to the mine. A missing fitting or an incorrectly selected rod can require another shipment. Confirming these details before dispatch helps keep the order useful when it arrives.

S83 Technical Specifications

Parameter Specification
Model S83
Power source Compressed air
Weight 33.4 kg
Length 688 mm
Drill steel shank size 22 × 108 mm
Air consumption ≤53.3 L/s
Percussive frequency ≥41 Hz
Hole diameter 34–45 mm
Piston diameter 76.2 mm
Piston stroke 118 mm
Working air pressure 0.63 MPa
Listed drilling depth 6 m

These specifications provide a starting point for equipment selection. Actual drilling results depend on rock conditions, air delivery, drill steel, bit condition, flushing and operation. Confirm the configuration and included items in the final quotation.

Check the Air Supply Where Drilling Happens

A compressor specification alone does not describe the air available at the drill.

Before ordering an S83, review the distance from the compressor to the working face, the hose arrangement and the other pneumatic tools sharing the line. Include the air leg and any additional equipment when discussing total system demand.

Send SHENLI the following information for a configuration discussion:

  • Compressor model and available performance data
  • Mine elevation
  • Number of drills expected to operate at the same time
  • Approximate hose length and internal diameter
  • Available pressure measurements at the working face

This gives the purchasing team and site team a common basis for reviewing the order.

Keep Drill Steel Compatibility Clear

Replacing a drill should not leave your warehouse with rods that cannot be used.

The S83 lists a 22 × 108 mm shank size. Check this against your existing drill steel before assuming compatibility. Rod length, bit connection and the intended hole diameter also need to match the drilling plan.

If your mine already holds rods and bits, send photographs and measured dimensions with the inquiry. Identify which items you want to keep using and which you want included in the new order.

For a complete drilling setup, list the drill, air leg, rods, bits, lubrication equipment and connections separately. The quotation should make clear what is included and what needs to be added.

Prepare Spare Parts Before the First Shipment

For a remote mine, maintenance planning begins before the machine arrives.

SHENLI produces complete rock drills and related parts, allowing buyers to discuss the machine and its maintenance supply in the same order. This makes it easier to coordinate part identification, quantities and shipment arrangements through one factory contact.

Build the initial spare parts request around:

  • The number of drills entering service
  • Expected operating hours
  • Your maintenance team’s repair capability
  • Existing spare parts stock
  • The time needed to receive a replenishment shipment

Request a parts list for the quoted S83 configuration. Use part numbers when placing repeat orders, and confirm availability for the selected items before shipment.

A practical spare parts package should reflect how your mine works. It should be clear enough for the buyer to approve and for the maintenance team to identify on arrival.

Make the Quotation Easy to Compare

A useful quotation lets your purchasing team see exactly what it is buying.

Ask for the S83 drill and each accompanying item to be identified separately. Review the air leg, drill steel, bits, fittings and spare parts against the same checklist used by your site team.

Before confirming the order, agree on:

Order detail What the buyer should receive
Equipment configuration Model, quantity and selected accessories
Spare parts Item names, part numbers and quantities
Packing Package count, dimensions and weights
Shipping scope Agreed trade term and named destination
Delivery schedule Confirmed preparation time and shipping arrangement
Commercial terms Payment terms and applicable warranty details

This gives your receiving team a reference for checking the shipment and helps your warehouse separate operating equipment from maintenance stock.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we use our current rods with the S83?

Compare their shank dimensions with the specified 22 × 108 mm interface first. Also check rod length and bit connection. Send measurements and photographs before including compatibility in the order.

Can the S83 drill every hole to 6 m?

The listed drilling depth is 6 m. Treat this as a specification for selection, rather than a guaranteed result in every rock formation. Discuss your required depth, rock conditions and drilling setup before purchasing.

How many S83 drills can our compressor support?

That requires a review of the compressor’s delivered capacity, site elevation, air line losses and all equipment operating together. Share the compressor data and planned tool count so the air supply can be assessed.

Can we order machines and spare parts together?

Yes. Include both in your inquiry and request an itemized quotation. Confirm the selected parts, quantities and availability before arranging dispatch.

What should we send to get a relevant quotation?

Send your required quantity, destination, hole diameter and depth, compressor information, existing drill steel dimensions and the accessories or spare parts you need.
