Start with the Simba model and hole diameter, then identify the top-hammer or ITH drill string, feed beam, rod handling system, positioner, hydraulic and chassis parts, material requirements and enquiry details.
Simba is a family of underground production drills covering top-hammer, ITH and water-powered drilling across different hole diameters. It does not use one interchangeable parts set. Rock drills, feed beams, rod handling systems, positioners, controls and carriers differ between the S, M, E and SM series and affect part interfaces. This page covers the models, dimensions, structures, materials and identification requirements relevant to wear parts and core spares.
Models and parameters come from Epiroc's current production drill catalogue, individual model pages and official technical specifications. S, SG, ITH, battery tramming, feed beam and rod handling configurations can change part interfaces even within the same base model.

Material links support engineering selection of ANRANST replacement parts; they do not imply that every Simba model uses the same OEM material grade. Confirm against the original part, drawings, rock, drilling method, failure mode and inspection requirements.
Long-hole Button Bits & Carbide Inserts
Bits withstand impact, rotation, abrasion and flushing media. For an enquiry, check the full Simba model, top-hammer or ITH method, bit diameter, thread, head profile, button layout, flushing arrangement and rock conditions.

Shank Adapters, Couplings, Rods, Tubes & Guides
The drill string transmits impact and torque to the hole bottom and controls deep-hole straightness. Check the COP rock drill or ITH hammer, RHS rod handling system, thread series, rod/tube diameter, length, flushing passages and end geometry together.
View Drill String and Heavy-Duty Components →Rod-handler Jaws, Grippers & Contact Wear Parts
RHS gripper jaws, guides, handling contact blocks and stops repeatedly clamp rods while exposed to impact, uneven loading and rock dust. Machine images locate the system; identify individual parts using the RHS model, left/right position, hole spacing and used-part dimensions.
View Clamping Parts, Pins and Connectors →Feed Slides, Guides, Wear Strips & Supports
Slides, guide rails, wear strips, thrust blocks and support blocks on the BMH feed beam guide axial movement of the rock drill and drill string. Confirm the feed beam model, length, mounting hole spacing, cross-section, fit clearance and wear reference surfaces.
Positioner Pins, Bushings, Rotation & Swing Supports
The positioner's rotary, oscillating, telescoping and tilting mechanisms use pins, bushings, trunnions and supports to maintain ring drilling accuracy. Images identify installation areas only. Confirm each part using the full model, position, shaft and bore diameters, length and lubrication method.
View Bearings, Bushings and Sliding Supports →Stinger, Break-out Table, Lower Support & Guards
Stingers, breakout tables, lower supports, guide blocks and guards withstand impact, clamping loads, falling rock and abrasion during positioning, rod handling and drilling. Confirm position, rod specification, hole spacing, overall shape and wear surfaces.
View Guards, Supports and Wear Plates →Identify core spares by assembly and function. The rock drill or ITH hammer, BMH feed beam, RHS, positioner, controls and carrier configuration together determine interfaces. Every part must be matched to the full model, assembly number, installation position and drawing.
COP Rock Drill or ITH Rotation/Percussion Assembly
Simba configurations include top-hammer, ITH and water-powered drilling. Rock drills, rotary and percussion mechanisms, shank adapters, bearings, seals and flushing interfaces vary by drilling method and assembly. Provide the nameplate or assembly number.
View Rock Drill and Heavy-Duty Drive Components →RHS Rod-handler, Carousel & Gripper Components
RHS carousels, handling arms, three-direction cylinders, clamps, pins, sensors and supports work together to add and remove rods. RHS 27, 35 and other configurations cannot be interchanged by appearance alone. Check capacity, rod specification, left/right position and assembly number.
BMH Feed, Chain/Cable, Sheaves & Cylinders
The feed system may include hydraulic motors, chains or wire ropes, sprockets or sheaves, tensioners, cylinders and end supports. The BMH model, feed length, reeving ratio and drilling tool configuration together determine interfaces.
View Chains, Sprockets and Feed Assemblies →Positioner, Rotator, Pendulum Arm & Cylinders
Positioners and rotators determine drilling angle and ring coverage. They include rotary drives, pendulum arms, cylinders, pins, bushings, sensors and stops. State installation direction, assembly number, travel and connection dimensions in the enquiry.
View Gears, Shafts and Rotary Drive Assemblies →Hydraulic Pumps, Valves, Cylinders, Hoses & Seals
Hydraulics power positioning, feeding, rod handling, stabilizers, steering and auxiliary movements. Confirm pumps, valves, cylinders, accumulators, hoses, fittings and seals against nameplates, circuits, pressure, flow, interfaces, bore, rod diameter and stroke.
View Hydraulic Seals and Assemblies →Carrier, Brakes, Air/Water & Electrical Systems
Axles, brakes, hubs, drive shafts, cooling, air/water flushing, cable reels, sensors and controls support underground long-hole drilling. Interfaces differ between S, SG, battery tramming and water-powered drilling variants.
View Carrier and Heavy-Duty Components →No. Check the top-hammer, ITH or water-powered drilling configuration, rock drill or hammer model, RHS, feed beam, threads, rod/tube diameters and lengths, bit diameter and flushing arrangement together.
