Sandvik 550 056 39 Flushing Device Body — The Core of Your Rock Drill’s Flushing System
If you run a Sandvik hydraulic rock drill or drifter, you already know how important flushing is. It’s not just about keeping things cool — it’s about keeping your machine alive. Flushing is needed on a drill rig to remove the cuttings generated by the drill bit, and a proper removal of cuttings is one of the key parameters for maximized drilling performance, rock drill reliability, and optimized rock tool life. Mining Without a properly functioning flushing system, your drill wears faster, your bits dull quicker, and your productivity takes a direct hit.
The Sandvik 550 056 39 Flushing Device Body is the structural heart of the flushing device assembly on Sandvik/Tamrock hydraulic drifters. This is the main body component that houses and integrates the flushing circuit within the rock drill, working in close coordination with the front cover assembly, shank bushing assembly, and adapter to route water or air-mist flushing media through the drill string with precision and consistency.
Why the Right Flushing Body Matters
A worn, cracked, or incorrectly fitted flushing device body doesn’t just reduce flushing efficiency — it can lead to seal failures, water ingress into the percussion mechanism, increased heat buildup, and accelerated wear across the entire drifter assembly. Replacing it with a genuine OEM-grade part like the 550 056 39 ensures that every seal seats correctly, every channel flows as designed, and your drifter performs the way Sandvik engineered it to.
Separate flushing on Sandvik rock drills results in efficient debris removal, directly adding to drilling efficiency and overall equipment durability. Mining The 550 056 39 body component is what makes that clean, separate flushing circuit possible.
