Chicago Pneumatic's Hydraulic Breaker Attachments Line

Staff -- Associated Construction Publications, 5/1/2008

Chicago Pneumatic Construction Tools' full line of hydraulic breaker attachments features 12 models. The new CP breaker line covers a wide variety of applications, including landscaping, building renovation, road construction, trenching, demolition and secondary breaking.

Chicago Pnuematic Hydraulic Breaker AttachmentsSuitable for excavators in the 26-to-75 metric ton weight class, three heavy-duty models are available with service weights ranging from 4,850 to 9,259-pounds. These units feature 5.9- to 7.1-inch working tool diameters and deliver maximum impact rates of 550 blows-per-minute.

Four medium breakers weigh between 1,213 and 3,527 pounds, ideal for use on 9- to 34-metric ton carriers. Five light models round out the line, with service weights from 209 to 827 pounds that are suitable for smaller 1.3- to 12-metric ton carriers.

The CP breakers feature an enclosed box design and elastic damping elements that isolate noise from the percussion mechanism and reduce harmful vibrations. The result is reduced noise on the jobsite and less strain on the breaker and its carrier.

Heavy and medium models come standard with CP-Lube, an automatic lubrication system that attaches directly to the breaker. Featuring a self-priming pump, CP-Lube eliminates the need to manually grease the breaker before and during each use.

Boasting a high power-to-weight ratio, CP hydraulic breakers are built with fewer moving parts for optimal reliability. The breakers are engineered with components that allow for simple maintenance, including easy-to-replace HeliCoil inserts, which improve the load distribution of the tension bolt threads for longer service life.

All 12 hydraulic breakers feature genuine CP working tools. Made with a nickel-chrome alloy that is optimized for breaking applications, each tool is temper hardened for greater wear resistance. Tool options for the entire line include the moil point, chisel and blunt tool. An asphalt cutter is also available for the five light models and the smallest medium unit.
