SPLIT SET®Stabilisers SS-46

KEY FEATURES

Model SS-46 Split Set stabilisers are 46 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.

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.

PACKAGING

Split sets are palletized on wooden bearers and bound with steel straps.

Units per pallet – 150

TYPICAL TEST RESULTS

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.

INSTALLING THE SS-46 STABILIZER

The SS-46 tube has a nominal outside diameter of 1.8 inches (46 mm).

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

The stabiliser is installed with the same drill used to make the hole. Model SS-46 Split Set stabilisers are commonly installed with jumbos. Almost any mounted percussive or hydraulic drill will have sufficient impact power for installing SS-46 stabilisers.

SPLIT SET® APPLICATION ENGINEERING SERVICE

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.
