Rock Drill Oils (RDO’s) represent a relatively minor expense for mine operators, yet they have the potential to have a significant impact on mine productivity and health and safety.  Traditional RDO’s create oil fog in the heading, reducing operator visibility,  making tools slippery and hard to handle, and creating a respiratory hazard.

Pneuma-Tool’s patented additives represent the latest in lubrication technology. These advancements have overcome the shortcomings of previous RDO’s, and  resulting in lower overall cost use through productivity gains.

Productivity and good working conditions go hand in hand.
