The massive GH-50 hydraulic hammer manufactured by NPK

NPK Construction Equipment, Inc.’s GH-50 hydraulic hammer, one of the largest production Hydraulic Breakers on the market, weighs in at 24,910  lbs. (11,300 kg) and is matched to excavators in the 120 U.S. tons and larger weight class.

The unique shock-absorbing mounting bracket, standard on these hammers, uses special heavy duty rubber mounts to absorb shock, recoil, and impulse vibration minimizing machine wear and improving operator comfort.  The latest improvements include a new internal drain system that increases seal life, bottom tie rod nuts for easier serviceability, as well as, a hammer bracket with an enclosed bottom for better protection for the hammer and tool assembly.

The GH50 continues the tradition of rugged, high quality, low maintenance hammers that have become the trademark of NPK quality worldwide.  

NPK maintains an extensive network of nearly 300 distributor outlets, the industry’s most comprehensive field service corps and an extensive parts distribution network to assure more equipment uptime with NPK hammers as well as compactors, crushers, material processors and pedestal breaker systems.
