Ingersoll Rand Pavement Breakers Ingersoll Rand features a full line of pavement breakers that offer more power and fewer parts than many of the competitive models. These units have been specifically designed in an effort to both improve productivity, by increasing power, and cut costs by reducing parts and costly wear items. In the 35 lb and 50 lb class, IRs "PB" series of breakers features a single housing design, that eliminates the need for high maintenance items such as side rods and springs, which can cost over $200 when they break.
To further reduce contracting costs, both of these models also have many interchangeable parts which eliminates the need to carry excess inventory for a contractor.
In the 60 lb and 90 lb class, IRs "MX" series of breakers also offers a host of category leading features designed to improve productivity and reduce costs over older conventional breakers. In particular, the "MX" breakers offer the following features: an adjustable exhaust that eliminates dust blow back in tight areas; a non-metallic valve cartridge to eliminate rust; a patented non-pressed, spring loaded anvil bushing that improves control and allows the bushing to be serviced without the need for a hydraulic press.
Similar to the smaller unis, the MX60 and MX90 have a built in lubricator, power stroke piston, one piece housing design, and interchangeable parts in an effort to reduce costly wear items and improve productivity. Lastly, all the units feature a latch type front-head that is foot operated for rapid steel changing.
