How to Improve Your Hydraulic Breaker Performance

Hydraulic breakers on excavators are used primarily in demolition jobs and take a beating with heavy-duty operation.  Hydraulic breakers, also called hydraulic hammers, must hold up in demanding demolition tasks, breaking rock and building material with a high level of breaking force.  This constant hammering, force and pressure requires heavy duty auxiliary circuits to support continual operation.

Maintain Auxiliary Hydraulics for Maximum Performance

Your auxiliary hydraulic system is the lifeblood to your attachments, including hydraulic hammers and breakers.  Demolition contractors must rely on their equipment to perform as expected without any unexpected downtime.  Downtime is a quick profit killer and may even result in fines for completing projects late.

You can significantly improve your auxiliary hydraulics to hold up in demanding applications with heavy-duty hydraulic quick couplers.  No one understands hydraulic quick couplers better than Stucchi, with over 60 years of experience in providing reliable and durable hydraulic solutions.

Realize the Benefits of Multi-Coupling Plates

Hydraulic equipment used in various applications requires maintenance in intervals, either when swapping out attachments on skid steer or replacing equipment on oil rigs.  Maintaining your hydraulic circuit is critical to achieving maximum performance, but are you realizing maximum efficiency?  If you are performing quick release operations on multiple lines at once, you must realize the benefits of multi-coupling plates. 

Multi-coupling plates allow for the quick connect and quick release of multiple lines at once, with one simple movement.  This significantly improves productivity, efficiency, and safety.  By using high quality multi-coupling plates, companies realize several benefits in addition to greatly improving efficiency.

Hydraulic Quick Couplers Key to Preventing Leaks & Contamination

Hydraulic quick couplers are the key to preventing leaks and environmental contamination in hydraulic applications.  Hydraulic fluid leaks are a profoundly serious contaminant to ground water and water supplies.  Operators of hydraulic equipment face significant fines and expensive clean-up efforts for hydraulic fluid contamination.

Hydraulic fluid leaks also pose a serious safety hazard to workers as well as contaminating the environment.  In addition to environmental and safety considerations, hydraulic fluid leaks may allow contamination back into your hydraulic circuit, causing equipment damage and unexpected downtime.

Leak-Free Flat Face Quick Couplers

Flat face hydraulic quick couplers provide a unique advantage over other types of quick couplers, especially over poppet style couplers.  The flat face design keeps contaminants out of your hydraulic circuit, prevents leaks onto the ground or onto operators.  This greatly improves sustainable operations and safety to workers. 

Stucchi’s Flat Face Quick Couplers Set ISO 16028 Standards

Stucchi has been providing hydraulic quick connect solutions for over 60 years.  Our design of the flat face quick coupler set the industry standard for ISO 16028.  We offer a wide selection of ISO 16028, flat face hydraulic quick couplers, that solve your problems with fluid leaks and even provide easy connection under pressure.  

Our flat face, ISO 16028 hydraulic quick couplers provide many benefits including:
