Nothing on this page is the machine. Everything on it is what the machine depends on, and most of it is bought after the machine, usually once something has already gone wrong. The four facts below are the ones worth knowing before that happens.
A lubricator is a warranty condition, not an accessory
The user manuals for our pneumatic motors require an air filter and a lubricator at the inlet, and state that running without them voids the warranty. The lubricator is set to roughly two drops per minute, using thin machine oil rated for minus 15 to plus 150 degrees C. This is the cheapest item on the page and the one that most often explains a motor that failed early.
The air line is a system, and its narrowest point sets the rate
Receiver, hose, fittings, lubricator, tool. A column drill consumes 4.2 m3/min and a line drill 5 to 10 m3/min at 7 bar, so allow at least 5 m3/min of supply per machine and add the figures together when several run at once. A correctly sized machine fed through an undersized line is a smaller machine, and the symptom shows up as slow drilling rather than as an air problem.
A blunt bit polishes the rock instead of cutting it
Penetration rate falls long before a bit looks worn out, and the cost lands on fuel, air and shift time rather than on the bit. The TIGER GRINDER resharpens cutting heads at up to 6,000 rpm on 6 bar and 1.5 m3/min, holding the set angle and radius in one movement so the geometry is not lost each time it is dressed.
Dust captured at the hole is cheaper than dust in the air
The dust collector takes it at the source, filtering through 2.5 m2 of surface at 3.5 m3/min of suction into a bag under the unit, on 6 to 7 bar. Budget its own 0.25 to 1 m3/min of air into the compressor sizing. Drilling dust in natural stone carries respirable silica, so this is a health control first and a housekeeping measure second.

Ask us what we needAir Line Equipment
A pneumatic machine is only as good as the air arriving at it, and four things decide that: a receiver to steady the supply, hose and fittings sized to carry it, and a lubricator to put oil into the air stream before it reaches the tool. The lubricator is the one that gets skipped, and it is the one our own motor manuals make mandatory. There are three of them here because they suit different jobs: the TIGER Y40 is the full-size unit at 1.5 litres and 20 bar maximum working pressure, 3.3 kg and 242 by 175 by 130 mm, with adjustable flow. The TIGER FY200B is the compact 200 ml unit at 1.02 kg, with plastic, aluminium or steel bodies. The INLINE LUBRICATOR is a 1.5 litre in-line unit with a 3/4 or 1 inch connection and an adjustment screw.
Tell us the machine, how many run at once and the length of the air line, and we will size the receiver, the hose bore and the lubricator together instead of one at a time. Get an air line specified →
Splitting and Block Handling
Drilling a line of holes separates nothing on its own. The splitting wedge is the plug and feather set that goes into those holes and opens the rock along the line, supplied in two sizes: a standard set with a 400 mm leaf, 430 mm feathers and 30 mm diameter, and a larger set at 580 mm, 600 mm and 34 mm. The hydro bag and power unit does the next job, tipping a cut block cleanly off the bench using air pressure rather than a machine pushing against it. The power unit carries the compressor, control panel, gauges and valves that run the bags.
Tell us the hole diameter you drill to and the block size you are splitting or tipping, and we will say which wedge set and how many bags the bench needs. Get splitting equipment quoted →
Consumables That Touch the Rock
These wear by design, and over a year they usually cost more than the machine did. TIGER RODS are drill rods for down-the-hole hammers, carrying torque and thrust from the machine to the hammer at the bottom of the hole, supplied in 1 to 1.5 metre lengths with RD50 or API thread. If you are drilling with a top hammer instead, the rods you need are a different thread family and live under Drilling Tools and Bits. Diamond wire is a high-grade steel cable carrying sintered diamond beads, and the bead configuration has to be matched to the stone, which matters far more to your cost per square metre than the price per metre of the wire does.
Tell us the hammer or the saw, the stone and roughly how many metres or square metres a month you cut, and we will specify the rod or the wire rather than send a price list. Get consumables specified →
Workshop and Site
Two machines that pay for themselves through what they prevent rather than what they produce. The TIGER GRINDER sharpens cutting heads without losing their structural integrity, holding the set angle and radius in a single movement at up to 6,000 rpm on 6 bar and 1.5 m3/min, 2 hp and 27 kg, mounted directly on the rock face or on an optional table structure. The TIGER DUST COLLECTOR captures drilling dust at the hole into a bag beneath the unit, through 2.5 m2 of filter surface at 3.5 m3/min of suction, drawing 0.25 to 1 m3/min of air at 6 to 7 bar and weighing 32 kg.
Tell us which bits you run and how many holes a shift, and we will say whether on-site sharpening pays on your operation and what the dust unit adds to your compressor load. Ask about sharpening and dust →

Sizes for hose, fittings and hydro bags are set by the machine they serve and the length of the line, so they are quoted against your layout rather than listed here. The two splitting wedge sets are matched to the hole you drill to, so tell us the bit diameter when you ask. If you are looking for rods for a top hammer drill rather than a down-the-hole hammer, those are a different thread family and sit under Drilling Tools and Bits.

How to choose
Four questions. The first one settles most of the page on its own.
1. Which machine is this for?
Almost everything here is specified against a machine rather than bought on its own merits. A lubricator is sized to the tool it feeds, a hose bore to the air the tool consumes, a wedge set to the hole you drill, a rod to the hammer it drives. Give us the model and the serial number if you have it and most of these questions answer themselves.
2. Is anything throttling your air?
If machines run slower than their published rate, suspect the line before the machine. Allow at least 5 m3/min of supply per machine at 7 bar, add the figures together where several run at once, and leave margin for losses along the line. A receiver steadies the supply so that the machines stop competing with each other every time one of them starts.
3. Are you fixing a failure or preventing one?
If something has already failed, the useful question is what caused it, because the same cause is still there. A pneumatic motor that failed early with no lubricator fitted will do it again. If you are buying ahead of a problem, the lubricator, the filter and correctly sized hose are the cheapest three items on this page and they protect the most expensive ones.
4. One machine or a fleet?
For one machine, the answer is usually a part number. For a fleet, it is worth working out what you hold on site, because the items here fail in predictable order: lubricators and hose first, then bits and rods, then the machine. Tell us how many machines of which type and we will put together what the site should carry rather than quote item by item.
If you run a quarry
The items here sit across the whole bench, from the compressor to the block on the ground, and they are easiest to get wrong when they are bought separately over time. Our guide to reducing cost per metre drilled works through where consumables, air and downtime actually land in the cost, which is usually not where people expect.
If you maintain machines rather than operate them
You are usually working backwards from a failure, often on a machine someone else specified. The air line is the first place to look, and the lubricator the first item to check for. If you are maintaining pneumatic motors, our comparison of vane and axial piston motors sets out what each type tolerates and what it does not.
Send us the machine, what it is doing and what you have already tried. We come back with the part, what caused the failure if we can see it, and the price.

Do I really need a line lubricator, or is it optional?
It is a condition of the warranty, not an option. The user manuals for our pneumatic motors require both an air filter and a lubricator at the inlet, and state that running the motor without them voids the warranty. Set the lubricator to about two drops per minute and use a thin machine oil rated for minus 15 to plus 150 degrees C. It is the cheapest item on this page and it is the one that most often explains a motor or a rock drill that failed far earlier than it should have.
Which of the three lubricators do I need?
The TIGER Y40 is the full-size unit: 1.5 litres, 20 bar maximum working pressure, 3/4 to 1 inch connection, 3.3 kg, with adjustable flow, and the reservoir is intended to cover a full shift. The TIGER FY200B is the compact one at 200 ml and 1.02 kg, with a transparent reservoir and a choice of plastic, aluminium or steel body. The INLINE LUBRICATOR is a 1.5 litre in-line unit with a 3/4 or 1 inch connection and an adjustment screw. Tell us the tool and the duty and we will say which.
How big a compressor and what hose do I need?
Published air consumption is 4.2 m3/min for the column and anchor drills and 5 to 10 m3/min for the line drills, both at 7 bar. Allow a minimum of 5 m3/min of supply per machine, add the figures together if several run at once, and leave a margin for losses along the line. The dust collector draws its own 0.25 to 1 m3/min on top of that. Hose bore follows from the total, which is why we quote it against your layout rather than list sizes.
What does the air receiver actually do?
It buffers the line so that machines stop competing with each other. The TIGER AIR RECEIVER holds 0.18 m3, works at 14 bar and is tested at 20 bar, weighs 25 kg and carries three 1 1/2 inch connections, one 1 inch and one 1/2 inch. It also has a valve to drain the condensate and water that otherwise ends up inside your tools.
Can I sharpen bits on site, and is it worth it?
The TIGER GRINDER is built for it: up to 6,000 rpm on 6 bar and 1.5 m3/min, 2 hp, 27 kg, mounted straight onto the rock face or onto an optional table structure. The point of a purpose-built grinder rather than an angle grinder is that it holds the set angle and radius in one movement, so the bit geometry survives being dressed repeatedly. Whether it pays depends on how many holes a shift you drill, so tell us that and we will give you a straight answer.
Which splitting wedge size do I need?
Two sets are made: a standard one with a 400 mm leaf, 430 mm feathers and 30 mm diameter, and a larger one at 580 mm, 600 mm and 34 mm. The wedge has to match the hole you drill, so the figure we actually need from you is the bit diameter and the depth you drill to, not the block size.
What is a hydro bag used for?
Tipping a cut block off the bench. Once a block has been freed by wire sawing or by splitting, it still has to come away cleanly, and a hydro bag does that with air pressure spread over a large area rather than a machine pushing against one point, which is what cracks blocks. The power unit carries the compressor, control panel, gauges and valves that run the bags.
Are TIGER RODS the same as the extension rods under Drilling Tools and Bits?
No, and it is worth being clear about it. TIGER RODS are drill rods for down-the-hole hammers, 1 to 1.5 m long with RD50 or API thread. The extension rods, MF rods and shank adapters under Drilling Tools and Bits are for top hammer drilling and use the T45, T51 and R32 thread families. The two do not interchange, because the threads are different and so is the way energy reaches the bit. Tell us which hammer you run and we will point you at the right one.
How do I choose diamond wire?
By the stone, not by the price per metre. The wire is a high-grade steel cable carrying sintered diamond beads, and the bead specification and spacing have to suit the hardness you are cutting. Marble and granite want different beads, and the wrong bead on hard granite raises consumption substantially for the same cut area. Tell us the stone and your monthly cut area and we will specify it.
Do these accessories carry CE or ATEX certification?
The CE marking and the ISO certification shown across this site apply to Set Makina machinery and to our production. The items on this page are components and consumables supplied for use with that machinery, and they are not individually ATEX-certified equipment. If your site or your tender requires a specific certification or declaration for a particular item, ask us before ordering and we will confirm exactly what that item carries rather than let you assume.
Can I still get parts for a machine I bought years ago?
Machines are manufactured in-house in Ankara and serial numbers are recorded against the buyer, so parts, wear items and service come from the maker rather than from a distributor who may no longer carry them. Give us the model and the serial number and we will work from the original build rather than from a current catalogue.
What oil should go in the lubricator?
A thin machine oil rated for minus 15 to plus 150 degrees C, fed at roughly two drops per minute. That is what the motor manuals specify. Using a heavier oil, or running the lubricator dry because nobody checks it, produces the same result as not fitting one at all.
