Frequently asked questions
What is a 5 tonne mini cracker used for?
A 5 tonne mini cracker is used to crush and cut concrete and masonry on smaller excavators, for example removing internal walls, floor slabs, lintels, steps and foundations during refurbishment, interior demolition and restricted access projects. It is far quieter and produces less vibration and dust than breaking.
Why use a mini cracker instead of a breaker?
Mini crackers crush rather than hammer, so they are much quieter, produce less vibration and dust and are safer to use close to occupied buildings or in confined spaces. They also cut through rebar and leave material in manageable sizes for removal. Breakers remain the better choice for very thick mass concrete and rock.
What excavator do I need for a 5 tonne mini cracker?
The cracker is designed for excavators in the 5 tonne operating weight class with a double-acting auxiliary hydraulic circuit. Tell us your machine make, model and hitch type and we will confirm compatibility and supply the correct hoses and fittings.
