Coal Mining Picks

Coal Mining Picks for Mechanical Coal Cutting

MSD coal mining picks are carbide cutting tools designed for mechanized coal cutting and underground coal mining applications.

These round-shank picks operate as part of a cutting system that includes the carbide-tipped pick, retaining arrangement, holder, and cutting head. They are mechanical cutting components rather than general-purpose mining tools.

Selection depends on the coal or associated material being cut, working conditions, existing pick dimensions, holder arrangement, cutting-head information, and observed wear. The product name alone does not confirm the correct replacement.

Coal Cutting and Shearer Application Review

Coal cutting and shearer cutting conditions can vary with seam material, included rock, abrasion, impact, moisture, and the cutting arrangement. These factors should be described before an available pick is selected.

Provide the type of underground coal cutting equipment, cutting-head or drum information, cutting position, material conditions, and the performance issue observed on the current tooling. This supports application review without assuming compatibility with a particular machine or shearer brand.

When cutting conditions vary across a working area, send representative information for the harder or more abrasive sections as well as normal conditions. Actual selection depends on the complete cutting system and operating environment.

30 mm and 35 mm Shank Confirmation

The current MSD coal mining picks range is organized into 30 mm shank and 35 mm shank groups. Shank diameter is a primary matching dimension, but it does not establish holder compatibility by itself.

Compare the published model, head diameter, body diameter where listed, shank diameter, carbide tip diameter, head length, shank length, and overall length with the existing pick or confirmed system requirement.

If the existing pick has no readable model marking, provide measured dimensions, clear photographs from several angles, and a drawing or physical sample where available. Do not substitute another shank size or complete a missing value by assumption.

Carbide Tip Geometry and Cutting Conditions

Carbide tip diameter, pick-head geometry, and overall pick geometry should be reviewed against the coal, associated rock, abrasion, impact, and cutting conditions.

Photographs of used picks can help identify the observed wear pattern, tip damage, body wear, poor rotation, or uneven contact. These observations support selection but do not replace confirmation of the shank, holder interface, and complete dimensions.

Material details and performance expectations should be confirmed for the specific requirement rather than inferred from a competitor product or a similar-looking pick.

Holder, Cutting Head, and Replacement Matching

The correct coal mining pick must match the holder, retaining arrangement, and cutting-head configuration. Confirm the 30 mm or 35 mm shank requirement together with shank length, head and body dimensions, installation clearance, and holder condition.

Before ordering a replacement pick, provide the existing model or markings, holder photographs and dimensions, cutting-head or drum information, mounting position, and complete pick measurements. Similar-looking products are not automatically interchangeable.

MSD does not infer compatibility with unconfirmed machine brands, shearer models, holders, or third-party product numbers. Existing drawings, photographs, samples, and previous MSD order information should take priority over a general product description.

For a non-standard requirement or a replacement not represented by the current specification table, send the available drawing, dimensions, photographs, or sample to MSD for separate technical and supply confirmation.

Coal Mining Picks Manufacturer and Quotation Support

MSD is a China-based rock drilling and cutting tools manufacturer with 23 years of manufacturing experience, exporting products to customers in 40+ countries.

The MSD team can review the underground coal cutting application, 30 mm or 35 mm shank requirement, published dimensional fields, holder and cutting-head information, material conditions, photographs, drawings, samples, and required quantity before confirming an available model.

For a coal mining picks quotation, provide the coal cutting application, material and working conditions, equipment and cutting-head information, holder details, existing pick model or markings, measured dimensions, photographs, required quantity, and destination. This supports dimensional matching, application review, quotation, and supply planning.
