Medium-hard rock is a constant hurdle in mining and tunneling jobs, and any drill crew on site will tell you how hard it is to find a tool that balances power and long-term wear. That’s exactly why we built the YT28 pneumatic air-leg rock drill — it’s tuned with just the right impact energy for these mid-grade rock conditions, drilling clean and fast without burning through parts early. We’re a specialized rock drilling machinery factory, with years of hands-on building and field testing behind us, and we engineered the YT28 for medium-hard rock (F8-18 hardness) to handle standard 32mm to 42mm drill holes, reaching a max depth of 5 meters for consistent, reliable results shift after shift.
This drill works in two ways: handheld for tight spots, or mounted to an air leg, pairing seamlessly with FT160BC short legs and FT160BD long legs to fit narrow mine tunnels, tunnel faces and sloped drilling sites without hassle. It comes with a simple, one-hand air-water control, automatic lubrication from the FY200B oiler, and quick air-leg adjustments to keep daily operation smooth and straightforward. Let’s talk about the old gear most mines used to run: basic ordinary rock drills and flimsy air-leg models that dragged their feet, wasted tons of compressed air, broke down on the regular, and left operators exhausted by shift end. The YT28 fixes every one of those flaws: it slashes air consumption by nearly 15%, speeds up drilling progress by 20%, extends wear part life, and eliminates the wobbly support and uneven hammering that made old drills such a hassle. It’s versatile enough to handle underground mining, tunnel digging, water conservancy work and highway slope anchoring all the same.
Built to take the dust, vibration and harsh conditions of underground and open-pit mines, the YT28 weighs only 26kg — light enough to keep operators from tiring out during long shifts, but still tough enough to deliver the power needed for the job. We added a built-in muffler to cut down on job site noise, making the work area safer and more bearable for crews, and it meets global safety standards for mining and construction work. Every YT28 unit goes through strict factory checks for air pressure durability, steady impact performance and solid build strength, using forged internal parts that hold up to heavy daily use and cut down on unplanned downtime — a big win for mines working on tight schedules and tight budgets.
