Ingersoll Rand 130A1M Bench Sand Rammer | 2.5″ Stroke | 870 BPM | 1″ Bore

Built for foundry molding operations where consistent sand compaction is essential, the Ingersoll Rand 130A1M Air Percussive Bench Sand Rammer delivers 870 blows per minute (BPM) with a 2.5-inch piston stroke and 1-inch bore to create uniform, densely packed molds. The rapid impact rate helps improve mold consistency while reducing the manual effort required during repetitive bench-level ramming operations. Its compact design is well suited for workstations where maneuverability and controlled impact are important for producing accurate casting molds.

The 130A1M incorporates a time-tested valve design (a proven pneumatic valve system that delivers dependable reciprocating action), a plated piston, and a dual-action sand wiper that helps prevent dirt and abrasive grit from entering the cylinder. A built-in lubricator supports smooth internal operation, while the integrated muffler and side exhaust contribute to a cleaner, quieter working environment. These features make the tool a practical solution for foundries and molding facilities that require reliable pneumatic compaction throughout daily production.
