Sandvik breakers Parts and tools

Parts and toolsSandvik Mining and Construction recognises that all our breakers and attachments are

only ever as good as the parts and tools they use.

Which is why our genuine parts and tools utilize the best raw materials and heat

treatment characteristics to ensure optimum durability across a broad range of

industries, materials and applications.

These parts and tools are available through a highly experienced global dealer network

that is unparalleled within our industry and which ensures that you get the right part or

tool, to the right place, at the right time.

During recent years Sandvik has researched tool design that will provide our customers

longer service life and better value. Sandvik's innovative tool design and world wide

testing programs have resulted in improved wear characteristics and greater durability

for our tools for a broader range of applications. Several new tools have been designed

with job specific requirements in mind.

Breaking application - Impact breaking

Impact breaking applications include boulder breaking and heavily reinforced concrete

breaking. The tool will typically not penetrate the material, as the material is broken by

destructive stress waves generated by the breaker, being transmitted through the tool

into material. (granite boulders, diorite, quartzite, heavily reinforced concrete, etc.)

Breaking application - Penetrative breaking

Penetrative breaking applications include general concrete demolition, removal of soft

rock, and frozen and hard ground. The material is broken by a combination of impact

energy and a `wedging' effect which forces the material to be separate as the tool

penetrates. (concrete, pudding stone, marl, etc.)

Choosing the right toolSeveral factors must be identified in the process of choosing the correct tool for

any specific job application. First one must determine if the job is an `impact' or

`penetrative' breaking application. Sandvik has introduced several tool models designed

with `job specific' work requirements, providing excellent value, long life and maximum

performance.

In the `impact' applications, one must identify the level of abrasive characteristics in the

material. The Sandvik Super Blunt tools provide excellent wear characteristic and long

life in applications breaking highly abrasive oversize materials, for example.. high silica

content boulders.

Primary breaking of hard rock will require the Sandvik Hard Rock Chisel. This tool is

geometrically designed for the highest production possible and long service life. In the

event the rock is very hard and homogenous, re-sharpening of the contact point may be

required.

Penetrative applications such as the breaking of limestone and non-reinforced concrete

require the Sandvik Limestone Chisel. Compared to standard chisel tools, the Sandvik

Limestone Chisel is specially designed for faster penetration while reducing the idle

blow effects caused by soft materials applications.

Correctly matching the right tool to the job application is critical to achieving the

highest level of production with lowest possible operating costs.

Use always original Sandvik tools. Any breaker failures caused by the use of pirate tools

are not covered by warranty.

Training

Sandvik also offers product specialist training on all its products as well as operator

training to ensure that you and your investment are achieving the best results.

Demolition tools Wear parts

Just like the tool for a breaker, Sandvik's range of demolition tool attachments also have

wear parts.

The Sandvik BP range of pulverizer and Sandvik BC cutter-crusher range of demolition

tools are essential additions to any demolition application and Sandvik offers a complete

range of spare parts to ensure that your productivity is maintained at it's highest level at

all times.

With 4 different jaw types and various other teeth options that can be attached

Sandvik's BC multiprocessor range can cut, crush, pulverize and tear down even the

most reinforced structure, which is something that can be achieved by using the highest

quality wear parts.

For more information on Sandvik's full range of demolition tools and replacement wear

parts please contact your local dealer.
