Terex
The TXH Series hydraulic hammers are built for compatibility with Terex compact excavators and loader backhoes. Pictured is the TX1100. Every hammer in the TXH Series is vibra-silenced via the polymer suspension pad to reduce total operator and carrier machine vibration exposure. These hammers are engineered to guarantee lower sound power levels, and the entire hydraulic hammer system is easily maintained through a single-point greasing system. The one-piece box design does not use cross-bolts, allowing the hammer to work in a narrower trench or close quarters without concern that the hammer could get hung up.

General Equipment
Designed for use with both small and large hydraulic systems, the DIG-R-TACH line is suitable for use with skid-steer loaders, small excavators, knuckleboom cranes and small backhoes. The 671 DIG-R-TACH Series 16 earth-drilling attachment (pictured) is intended for smaller hydraulic systems, whereas the Series 24 is designed for larger hydraulic systems found with backhoes and excavators. Featuring a two-speed chain/sprocket drive and a 5- to 20-gpm hydraulic flow range, the Series 16 balances smaller flow volumes in proportion to auger diameters, resulting in a cleaner hole with less loose soil and debris.
