Genesis releases new hydraulic breakers

The new GHB line of hydraulic breakers from Genesis Attachments are designed for applications including demolition and general construction, as well as road, bridge and utility work.

Genesis Hydraulic BreakersGenesis Attachments launched its new GHB line of hydraulic breakers. GHB models range from 250- to 12,000-ft.-lb. of impact energy, and feature an optimized power-to-weight ratio. Additionally, the new dry-fire protection prevents the hammer from firing when the tool is not loaded, protecting key components of the hammer that include tie rods and side rods.

Other features include a refillable and changeable cartridge in the lube system that is triggered by the action of the GHB, eliminating manual greasing. Also, a field-serviceable lower brush can be used to expose fresh metal, extending the life of the bushing and saving on wear-part expenses.
