Best value for money 13t breaker?

[Demolition Man]

Looking to buy new as a bit wary of used. Not a heavy user perhaps 6-8 weeks a year but think its avout time to stop hiring and buying my own. Are the cheaper makes really that bad? Some with 2 year warranties too. I break out rock mainly from farm quarries for own use, its not granite so not too taxing.

Only ever hired Montabert and Atlas Copco so no experience of Korean/Chinese types.

Are you happy with and would it be good for quarrying? Is it the Tairus you bought? Cheers

No tried a ripper and its no better than a 12” bucket with good teeth. I’ve taken about 5000 tonne out with hired hammers but hire charges are getting to the point ownership makes sense. My worry is that a cheaper hammer are cheap for a reason but at the end of the day I’m not a serious user either. Just wondered if anyone happy with the less expensive types?

Aye it was a Taurus breaker we got. We have Toku breakers for our 13T machines. Nigel will give you the best equipment for you.
