Hydraulic breakers, also known as hydraulic hammers, are powerful attachments commonly used with heavy machinery in construction, demolition, and mining applications. These attachments are designed to break through tough materials such as concrete, rock, and asphalt.  Hydraulic breakers come in different sizes and types to suit different applications. They can range from small, handheld units for light-duty work to large, heavy-duty units for industrial demolition and excavation.
