This model is part of Atlas Copco’s medium-range pneumatic rock drill lineup and is designed for water-flushed pusher leg drilling in small cross-section tunnels and headings. Atlas Copco lists the BBC 16W for hole diameters from 1 inch to 1.6 inch, with a standard 7\/8 inch x 4-1\/4 inch hex shank size. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"629\" data-end=\"1082\"\u003eThe BBC 16W is often referred to as the Puma, and for good reason: it is an all-around rock drill built for strong performance in medium to hard rock without moving into a heavier drill class. It combines a long 2.17 inch stroke, 2.76 inch piston diameter, and 2,340 blows per minute impact rate to deliver the striking power needed for production drilling, development work, and general underground drilling tasks. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"1us7lj3\" data-start=\"1084\" data-end=\"1122\"\u003eBuilt for Underground Rock Drilling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1124\" data-end=\"1578\"\u003eThe BBC 16W is designed for crews that need a dependable pusher leg drill for tough drilling conditions. Atlas Copco’s own product information describes these water-flushed, pusher leg mounted rock drills as intended for driving drifts and tunnels with a small cross section. That makes the BBC 16W a strong fit for underground work where space is limited, drill control matters, and tool durability is not optional. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1580\" data-end=\"1616\"\u003eThis model is especially useful for:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1618\" data-end=\"1927\"\u003e• Drift driving and tunnel development\u003cbr data-start=\"1656\" data-end=\"1659\"\u003e• Underground stone drilling\u003cbr data-start=\"1687\" data-end=\"1690\"\u003e• Mine development drilling\u003cbr data-start=\"1717\" data-end=\"1720\"\u003e• Small cross-section tunnel work\u003cbr data-start=\"1753\" data-end=\"1756\"\u003e• Medium to hard rock applications\u003cbr data-start=\"1790\" data-end=\"1793\"\u003e• Pusher leg drilling with compatible Atlas Copco feed legs\u003cbr data-start=\"1852\" data-end=\"1855\"\u003e• Water-flushed drilling where dust and cuttings removal are important\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1929\" data-end=\"2277\"\u003eThe 57 lb listed product weight keeps the BBC 16W in a practical operating range for underground use while still giving the operator real impact performance.

The BBC 16W is built around that balance. Its long stroke helps produce good penetration in hard rock, while the rifle bar rotation mechanism is built to handle continuous drilling loads. Atlas Copco literature describes the BBC 16W Puma as an all-round rock drill suitable for most drilling applications in medium to hard rock, with pusher leg control placed in the back head of the drill for operator access. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3340\" data-end=\"3788\"\u003eThe BBC 16W also stays efficient enough for job sites where compressor capacity matters. At 146 CFM, it can be matched with properly sized portable air systems while still delivering the impact rate needed for production drilling. For crews already using Atlas Copco pneumatic drilling equipment, the BBC 16W also keeps the setup familiar, serviceable, and compatible with common drill steels, bits, lubricators, hoses, and pusher leg arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1cgu054\" data-start=\"3790\" data-end=\"3817\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv
