SPLIT SET®Stabilisers SS-39

• Model SS-39 Split Set stabilizers are 39 mm in diameter.
• Tubes and plates are available standard or galvanized.
• Code stampings on the tube show its size, date and place of manufacture, and heat lot of steel.
• Split Set Mining Systems quality management system for Split Set products has been certified to the ISO-9002 international quality standard.

SS39 Split Set Stabilisers are generally most suitable in softer ground types.

The Split Set stabiliser is a slotted steel tube, with one end tapered for easy insertion into a drill hole. The other end has a welded ring flange to hold the bearing plate.

The stabiliser is inserted into a hole slightly smaller in diameter than the tube, using a simple driver tool fitted to the drill. As the tube enters, its diameter is compressed and the slot partially closes. This exerts radial forces along the length of contact with the rock, providing the friction which holds the rock together. The driving force of the drill actively loads the bearing plate against the rock.

Split sets are palletized on wooden bearers and bound with steel straps.
Units per pallet = 150 per pallet

The following are typical installation examples of bit size versus anchorage and driving time versus anchorage. Actual experience will vary based on bit style, drilling equipment and rock type.

The SS-39 tube has a nominal outside diameter of 39mm.

The length chosen should be the same as with other types of rock bolts, and installed with the same spacing.

The stabilizer is installed with the same drill used to make the hole. Split Set stabilizers are commonly installed with jacklegs, stopers, jumbos and automatic bolting machines. Almost any hydraulic drill, or any percussive air drill with a bore of 2-5/8 inches (66 mm) and operating at 90 psig (6 bar), will have sufficient impact.

The Split Set stabilizer is a unique rock stabilization and support system. It interacts with the rock differently from other rock bolts. For this reason, Split Set Mining Systems offer a free application engineering service to assist you in the selection of the proper Split Set configuration for your needs. We will also assist in determining the best way to use your existing equipment for the job, the best drilling procedure, and appropriate tools and accessories for your equipment and space limitations. We urge you to take advantage of this service. Our ground support technical representative will be pleased to make the arrangements.
