How Does a Fixed-Hammer Brushcutter Head Work?

These heads use fixed hammers mounted on a horizontal rotor that rotate at high speed to pound and shred vegetation. The impact force of the hammers enables the cutting and shredding of dense undergrowth, bushes, small trees and even larger diameter timber.

Advantages of Fixed-Hammer Brushcutter Heads

Effectiveness

They are very effective for clearing large areas of dense, woody vegetation.

Robustness

Fixed hammers are resistant to impact and abrasion, which gives them a long service life.

Versatility

They can be used for a variety of clearing tasks, from weeding to wood chipping.

Safety

Fixed hammers are protected by a robust housing that minimises the risk of splinters or vegetation debris being thrown.

Choosing the Right Fixed-Hammer Brushcutter Head

The choice of the right fixed-hammer brushcutter head for your excavator will depend on the specific needs of the job, the type of vegetation to be cleared and the power of the excavator:

Cutting capacity

The cutterhead must have a cutting capacity sufficient for the maximum diameter of the vegetation to be cleared.

Head weight and available flow

The weight of the head must be compatible with the load capacity of the excavator and the available flow must be sufficient to drive the head.

Type of hammers

There are various types of hammers of differing shapes and materials, depending on the type of vegetation to be cleared.

Mounting options

The head must be compatible with the mounting system of the excavator.
