Why choose a hydraulic breaker for your construction equipment?
A hydraulic breaker, also known as a hydraulic hammer, is one of the most versatile attachments for construction machinery. Whether you operate a Caterpillar excavator, a Komatsu machine, or a Hitachi equipment, a quality breaker can make a difference in your demolition, quarry, or construction projects.
What you need to know about hydraulic breakers?
Choosing the right hydraulic hammer for your construction equipment requires understanding several technical aspects. Renowned manufacturers like Liebherr and JCB offer hydraulic breakers optimized for various applications. The efficiency of a hydraulic breaker largely depends on its compatibility with the hydraulic system of your machine, from hydraulic pumps to distributors.
What are the main applications of hydraulic breakers?
A modern hydraulic hammer is indispensable in multiple scenarios:
- Demolition of reinforced concrete structures
- Breaking rocks in quarries and mining sites
- Road rehabilitation works
- Excavations in rocky terrain
- Landscaping and horticultural works
For each application, we provide hydraulic breakers compatible with Volvo, Doosan, Hyundai, and other top brands in the industry.
How to choose the right hydraulic breaker?
Selecting the optimal hydraulic hammer depends on several critical factors:
- The operational weight of the hosting machine
- The flow and pressure of the hydraulic system
- The type of material to be processed
- The planned frequency of use
- The environmental conditions of the site
Our team of specialists can help you choose the perfectly compatible breaker with your Case or New Holland machine, ensuring optimal performance and maximum productivity.
What are the essential components of a hydraulic breaker?
A modern hydraulic hammer integrates multiple critical components:
