How Much Does a Hydraulic Breaker Weigh? Expert Guide for Excavator Part Professionals
Understanding the weight of a hydraulic breaker is crucial for excavator part professionals. Correct weight selection impacts machine compatibility, job efficiency, safety, and logistical planning. This article details typical weights, influencing factors, and essential tips for choosing the right hydraulic breaker for your project.
Hydraulic Breaker Weight Overview
- Hydraulic breaker weight refers to the mass of the hammer attachment used on excavators and other carriers.
- Weights affect transportation, carrier selection, and performance.
- Variations in hydraulic breaker weights optimize them for different machine sizes and job applications.
Standard Hydraulic Breaker Weight Ranges
- Mini hydraulic breakers (for compact excavators):
- Weight: *60–200 kg* (132–440 lbs)
- Carrier: *0.8–4 ton excavators*
- Medium hydraulic breakers (general construction):
- Weight: *200–1,500 kg* (440–3,300 lbs)
- Carrier: *4–18 ton excavators*
- Large hydraulic breakers (heavy-duty/quarrying):
- Weight: *1,500–7,000 kg* (3,300–15,400 lbs)
- Carrier: *18–100 ton excavators*

Key Factors Affecting Hydraulic Breaker Weight
- Design & body material:
- Heavy-duty steel adds weight and durability.
- Tool size and piston dimensions:
- Larger pistons = greater impact force = higher weight.
- Mounting bracket:
- Weight includes mounting hardware for carrier compatibility.
- Additional features:
- Sound suppression, auto-greasing systems, or dust protection can increase weight.
- Hydraulic cylinder size:
- Bigger cylinders boost energy output and weight.
Matching Hydraulic Breaker Weight With Carrier
- Always consult the excavator’s rated lifting and operating capacity.
- Incorrect matching can cause equipment damage or hazardous jobsite conditions.
- *Tip:* Carrier should support at least 10–15% more than the breaker’s weight for safe operation.
Transport and Handling Best Practices
- Use certified lifting eyes and slings rated above breaker weight.
- Secure in transit using OEM-approved tie down instructions.
- Confirm transport truck and site lifting equipment can safely manage the hydraulic breaker weight.
Frequently Searched Hydraulic Breaker Weight FAQs
- Q: Does hydraulic breaker weight affect tool longevity?
- *A:* Yes. Oversized breakers may cause excess carrier wear, while undersized units underperform or fail prematurely.
- Q: Is published weight “operating” or “dry”?
- *A:* Weights typically refer to the dry (no oil) value, including the standard tool and mounting bracket.
