Y24 Hand Held Pneumatic Rock Drill (Dry Drilling Specialist)

Y24 Hand Held Pneumatic Rock Drill (Dry Drilling Specialist | Shenyang Standard)

Why choose the Y24? The Y24 Hand Held Rock Drill is a robust pneumatic jackhammer specifically engineered for Dry Drilling (air-flushing) in medium-hard to hard rock (f=8~18). It excels in environments where water supply is scarce or where freezing temperatures prevent wet drilling.

🌍 Global Standard: Manufactured from high-strength forged alloy steel, it follows the classic industrial Shenyang design. It is highly popular for small hole drilling in limestone and marble quarrying across Saudi Arabia, UAE, and India.

⚡ Air Compressor Requirement for Y24

• Tool Air Consumption: ≤ 50 L/s.

• Recommended Compressor: 120 CFM (approx. 55-60 L/s) at 0.4–0.63 MPa.

• Note: Stable air volume is critical for efficient dust removal in dry drilling.

Key Features & Benefits

Expandag supplies all genuine Y24 replacement parts manufactured to the classic Shenyang industrial standard, ensuring 100% compatibility.

Safety & Operation Guidelines

1. Inspection: Check the FY200 line oiler and air connections before starting. Proper lubrication prevents piston seizing.

2. Site Safety: Clear loose rocks from the drilling face and ensure stable footing.

3. Technique: Start with low pressure to collar the hole, then open the throttle fully.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the Y24 rock drill be used for wet drilling?

A: Y24 is primarily optimized for dry drilling (air flushing). If your project requires water flushing, we highly recommend the TY24C or Y26 models.

Q: Are your Y24 spare parts compatible with other brands?

A: Yes. Our Y24 follows the classic Shenyang industrial standard. Internal parts like the YT24-1.10 Piston and YT24-1.09 Rifle Bar are 100% compatible with standard Y24 drills globally.

Q: Why is the drill bit getting stuck during dry drilling?

A: This usually happens when rock dust isn't clearing fast enough. Ensure your compressor delivers at least 0.5 MPa to activate the powerful air-blowing function.

Q: What size air compressor do I need to run a single Y24 rock drill?

A: To operate one Y24 pneumatic rock drill efficiently, you need an air compressor that delivers at least 120 CFM (approx. 55-60 L/s) at a working pressure of 0.4 to 0.63 MPa (58-90 PSI). Adequate and stable air pressure is critical for the Y24's dry air-flushing mechanism to effectively blow out rock dust.

Q: What is the main difference between the Y24 and YT28 rock drills?

A: The Y24 is a hand-held sinker drill designed specifically for vertical downward drilling in surface quarrying. In contrast, the YT28 is an air-leg rock drill (equipped with a pusher leg), engineered for horizontal or upward drilling in underground tunneling and deep mining.

Q: What type of lubrication oil is required for the Y24 jackhammer?

A: The Y24 requires continuous lubrication through an inline oiler, such as the included FY200 lubricator. We recommend using standard rock drill oil or SAE 20W/30W engine oil, depending on ambient temperatures. Proper oiling is essential to prevent internal components like the piston and rifle bar from seizing during heavy-duty dry drilling.
