Chicago Pneumatic’s new line of hydraulic breakers has a design that uses fewer components while bringing the power needed on the job. The power booster is in all 13 models in the RX line to offer higher breaking performance in tougher applications without increasing the hydraulic input. While the impact energy remains constant, the breaker increases the blow frequency, resulting in increased percussive performance. The power stop function reduces blank firing, protecting the breaker and carrier and increasing the working life of the components. With the exception of the RX11, the RX2 to RX22 models have fewer components, only two moving parts and no side bolts, making them easier to service, maintain and repair. The larger models in the RX line, RX25-RX53, have a power control valve to increase productivity. This enables the operator to set the breaker characteristics according to the application for higher productivity. The RX25-RX53 models also have a cutting-edge side bolt system that uses head bolts and insert threads to distribute the thread strain equally. www.cp.com
