The Tamco/Toku TJ-20 is a 40 lb class handheld pneumatic rock drill the mid-weight of Toku’s line for anchor-hole drilling, foundation pins, quarry bench work and rock bolting. A 2-3/4 in. piston bore with a 1-15/16 in. stroke drives 2,400 BPM through the chuck, splitting the difference between the 30 lb TJ-15 and the 60 lb TS-55 in the same family.
Both chucks 7/8 x 3-1/4 and 7/8 x 4-1/4 in. run hex shanked drill steel. Budget 87 CFM at 90 PSI and one 185 CFM compressor per drill. Tool weight builds from 41 to 48 lb with chuck choice, light enough to move hole to hole all shift, and the rock drills category puts every class we stock side by side.
