HYDRAULIC HAMMER DELIVERS PRODUCTIVITY AND RELIABILITY
The Caterpillar H180D S hydraulic hammer is designed to deliver superior breaking productivity and minimize downtime through the use of a number of innovative features. Compared to the previous model, the piston and tool have been increased in size for a 15 percent increase in productivity - performance that sets the H180D S apart in its weight class. The hammer weighs 8,600 pounds (3900 kg) and is perfectly matched to Cat 345C and 365C hydraulic excavators. The Auto Shut Off (ASO) feature turns the hammer off when no material is present beneath it. ASO extends the reliability and durability of the hammer by reducing the high stress levels caused by blank firing. The heavy-duty suspension system sig-nificantly reduces shock loads transmitted to the machine during hammer operation to improve operator comfort and extend life of critical machine components. Standard sound suppression improves operator comfort and environmental protection.
The H180D S features larger heavy-duty tie rods to accommodate the increase in performance. Full-length wear plates on all four sides of the inner housing increase the guidance and the stability of the power cell. The wear plate design also enhances durability, and visual wear indicators ease maintenance.
