These are fitted to use with Our RockPro 50mm Hydraulic Splitters. Both the supply and return line are put into the Remote Valve, continued through the Hydraulic circuit and attached to the splitter in the rock. The operator will then be able to activate the equipment without touching the splitter itself. This accessory is IDEAL when breaking larger unstable rocks that you don’t want your guys standing on when it breaks, especially if the boulder is on a slope.
Hand Splitters, also known as feather and wedges, provide a simple, reliable, and cost-effective method for splitting rock, stone, and concrete without explosives or hydraulic equipment. Ideal for small projects, landscaping, stone masonry, and controlled rock removal, they produce a clean, predictable split with minimal noise and vibration.
The system consists of two feathers (shims) and a center wedge. After drilling a series of holes along the desired split line, insert the feathers into each hole, place the wedge between them, and drive the wedges evenly with a hammer. As pressure builds, the rock fractures along the drilled line.
