14" Trommel

[hardyakka]

Hi all,

I have a new 14" trommel for sale.

The drum is 355mm x 1300mm long and the frame overall is 1750 long x 1080 wide and the hopper is 950mm high.

The whole frame is tig welded and made out of aluminium to keep the weight down and the drum is steel.

It comes with a genuine honda engine and worm drive reduction gearbox turning the chain and sprockets.

Water is fed through a 40mm spray bar which runs through the length of the drum and also has a shut off valve and 3/4" tap

to assist in sluice clean up.

The sluice is 300mm x 1200mm long, it has ribbed rubber matting under nomad matting with hungarian style steel riffles on top.

The first 300mm of the sluice has expanded mesh over the nomad matting.

This trommel will keep up with 2 blokes shoveling and 95% of the gold is caught in the 1st 300mm of the sluice.

Price is $2500.00

Pick up in Sth Gippsland or can organise courier at your expense.

Ph. 0405266698

What a great looking machine hardyakka. Great work. I wish they were legal here in NSW, I would be grabbing one for sure especially with the price you have it at. Bargain I reckon.

What size pump to run and approx overall weight please Hardyakka?

Thanks Willo,

G'day Goldtarget, i run mine with a p-90 pump at around 1/4 - 1/3 throttle, same as a highbanker.

From memory the last time i weighed 1 it went 68kg including the sluice , they are very easy to wheel around, once picked up the engine

acts like a counter balance and there is no real weight at all, then you just wheel it around like a wheel barrow.
