Montabert to Show Compact Breaker, Other Silent Demolition Tools at ConExpo
Montabert will be showing new products at ConExpo-Con/Agg in Las Vegas in March including the SD Compact Breaker for rock breaking. The SD line is designed to fit compact carriers such as mini-excavators and skid-steer loaders. Also, Montabert’s new line of silent demolition tools, including grapples, processors, fixed and rotating pulverizers, and scrap shears, offer contractors multiple options for demolition and recycling applications.
Montabert’s SD series of hydraulic breakers is designed for use on skid-steer loaders, backhoe loaders, and mini-excavators, providing versatility and productivity to accomplish multiple tasks with a single carrier, a single operator, and a single attachment. With fewer wear parts and no tie rods, the SD offers quick and easy maintenance in the field or the shop. Bushings, pins, and tools can easily be replaced in the field without removing the breaker from the carrier. The fully enclosed, soundproof cradle reduces vibrations transferred to the carrier, as it limits noise on the jobsite. Lightweight, yet heavy-duty housing protects working parts and hoses. A unique energy chamber acts as hydraulic shock absorber and reduces pressure variations in the hydraulic circuits to provide consistent energy to the breaker. The SD line includes seven models for compact carriers from one ton to 12 tons.
The Montabert Silent Demolition Tools line offers a wide range of quality tools designed and built to provide contractors with an excellent price-performance ratio and low maintenance cost. The combination of ultra-wear-resistant steels and top-quality components makes Montabert Silent Demolition Tools versatile, efficient, and durable. Grapples are designed for carriers from five tons up to 100 tons. They feature 360° rotation, Hardox 400-450 jaws and Hardox 500 exchangeable blades. Multiprocessor jaws for carriers weighing eight to 65 tons include combi-, multifunction and scrap-metal jaws. They offer 360° rotation, speed valve cylinders, and exchangeable Hardox 600 crushing teeth. In the Pulverizer line, Montabert offers both a fixed model and — new for 2022 — a 360° rotating model. All pulverizers feature Hardox 400 bodies, exchangeable/reversible blades, and exchangeable wear plates and teeth.
