Frequently asked questions
What size excavator do I need for a 50 tonne breaker?
A 50 tonne breaker is designed to be mounted on an excavator in the 50 tonne operating weight class. The carrier must have a hammer or auxiliary hydraulic circuit with the correct flow and pressure, and the breaker must be matched to the machine’s weight and hydraulic output. 777 Hire can supply a compatible excavator alongside the breaker if required.
What can a 50 tonne breaker be used for?
A 50 tonne breaker is typically used for primary breaking in quarries and mines, oversize boulder reduction, heavy demolition of mass concrete structures, tunnelling and major infrastructure works. It is one of the most versatile attachments on any demolition or groundworks site.
Do I need a qualification to use the 50 Tonne Breaker Hire?
For commercial site work, whoever uses it should hold a recognised qualification for the equipment, such as CPCS, NPORS or IPAF depending on the machine, and a CSCS card is often needed on managed sites. Make sure whoever uses it is qualified before you hire.
