Excavator Ripper

The excavator ripper, also known as a ripper tooth or shank, is one of the most powerful and efficient attachments for excavators. With its specialized design and extremely durable steel tine, this tool is engineered to break up and loosen very hard, compacted, rocky, and frozen ground. The ripper enables the excavator to operate with greater force and depth in projects where a standard bucket cannot effectively penetrate or demolish the material. Using a ripper significantly facilitates and accelerates excavation and ground preparation operations in challenging conditions.

Sintash’s rippers are manufactured using the finest steel alloys and advanced welding and hardening technologies to provide maximum resistance against abrasion, impact, and extreme operational stresses. These products are designed and built for various excavator tonnages and, with their high penetration capability, easily break through hard soil layers, old asphalt, non-reinforced concrete, and thick tree roots.

Key Applications of Sintash Excavator Rippers:

• Hard and Rocky Ground Preparation: For excavation, trenching, and foundation work in mines, construction projects, and road building.
• Surface Demolition: Tearing up worn-out asphalt on roads and streets, and breaking light concrete surfaces.
• Agriculture and Forestry Operations: Loosening compacted soil to improve water and air penetration, and extracting deep roots and large rocks from farmlands and forest tracks.
• Channel and Trench Digging: In hard ground where using a bucket alone is insufficient.
• De-icing Operations: Breaking up frozen ground surfaces in cold regions to commence construction activities.
• Assisting Other Machinery: Initial ground loosening and preparation to facilitate the work of scrapers and graders.

Sintash rippers are designed with a focus on increasing your productivity and reducing operational costs. By minimizing stress on the bucket and other excavator components, these attachments also contribute to extending the lifespan of your machine. Our technical experts at Sintash are ready to provide specialized consultation to help you select the ripper that best suits your excavator and project requirements.
