The T45 badge is only the start
A used Epiroc FlexiROC T45 is a serious top-hammer drill, but the model name alone tells you little about the machine you are actually buying. The T45 family covers different booms, threads, and rod-handling setups, and the installed configuration decides what the rig can do in your quarry. Without confirming those details, you could end up with a machine that cannot drill your bench in one pass or that needs a tooling inventory you do not have.
On GLOBMACH, the used Epiroc FlexiROC T45 listing is the starting point, not the final word. The seller's description is a claim until it is tied to the specific serial number. Your job is to turn that claim into evidence before you talk price.
Rock drill, boom, and thread: the three numbers that matter
The rock drill is the heart of a top hammer. Its model and serial number reveal the shank adapter it accepts. Epiroc's brochure for the T45 family shows recommended boom/thread combinations: the standard boom table lists T51/T60, while the folding boom table includes T45/T51. The same machine name can therefore come with different threads, and that changes everything about your tooling.
So the first evidence to request is a clear photo of the rock drill plate, the boom type visible by geometry, and the actual thread on the shank and feed. Also ask for the feed length and maximum rod length. These details determine if the rig can drill your bench in one pass.
