Demolition Breakers
Buy Demolition Breakers
Demolition Breakers are a go-to buy for contractors tackling reinforced concrete breaking, road surface removal, foundation demolition, and heavy-duty chiselling work where standard power tools simply don’t have the impact energy required. Available in electric and petrol-driven configurations, and across a range of weight classes from handheld breakers through to heavy floor-mounted units, the right breaker significantly reduces time and labour on hard breaking tasks. Wenbro stocks professional-grade Demolition Breakers maintained in-house for reliable performance on demanding sites. For complementary breaking and cutting work, our Concrete Saws are often used alongside breakers for controlled demolition, and for removing broken material from site, our Conveyors support the material handling workflow.
Frequently Asked Questions
What applications are Demolition Breakers used for?
Demolition Breakers are used for breaking reinforced and unreinforced concrete slabs, road surfaces, masonry walls, foundations, and any hard material requiring high-impact breaking force. They’re also used for trench breaking in rock and hard ground, and for chasing walls for pipework and cabling installations.
What’s the difference between an electric and a petrol Demolition Breaker?
Electric breakers are suited to indoor demolition and enclosed spaces where exhaust fumes are a concern — they’re quieter and require no fuel management. Petrol breakers are self-contained and better suited to outdoor road and civil demolition work where grid power isn’t available. Both deliver comparable impact energy in equivalent weight classes.
What chisel types are available for Demolition Breakers?
Common chisel types include moil point chisels for general concrete breaking and rock work, flat chisels for slab lifting and horizontal breaking, spade chisels for compacted soil and asphalt, and clay spades for trench work in cohesive ground. The right chisel selection significantly affects breaking efficiency. Contact Wenbro on 087 073 7777 for guidance.
Can Demolition Breakers be used for breaking asphalt road surfaces?
Yes — Demolition Breakers are widely used for breaking out asphalt road surfaces for utility repairs and road rehabilitation work. For cleaner, more controlled cuts prior to breaking, a Concrete Saw is typically used to cut defined edges before the breaker removes the material between the cuts.
Does Wenbro service Demolition Breakers after purchase?
Yes — Wenbro’s in-house workshop handles all servicing and maintenance on Demolition Breakers sold through us, including chisel retainer, piston, and internal mechanism servicing. Given the high-impact nature of this equipment, regular servicing is essential to maintain safe and effective operation. Call 087 073 7777.
