Specialist equipment.
Practical advice.Start with the right cropper for your pile.
01 / POSITION
Line up the cropper above the pile before lowering.
A hydraulic cropper applies force around a pile to break away unwanted concrete and expose the reinforcement. Purpose-built equipment, ready for the next stage of your foundations.
Line up the cropper above the pile and identify the required cut-off level.
Lower the cropper over the pile, bringing its cutting points into position.
Hydraulic jaws apply force around the pile to separate the concrete head.
Lift the separated section clear of the prepared, debonded reinforcement.
Illustration shows a prepared, debonded pile. Operating method depends on the cropper, pile design and approved site procedure.

YOUR PROJECT, READY TO DISCUSS
Download your details to share when arranging hire. Equipment suitability, rates and availability still need confirmation.
Selection depends on pile diameter and shape, reinforcement and debonding, concrete condition, and your excavator. Include these details in your hire brief so suitability can be checked.
Excavator weight alone does not confirm compatibility. Hydraulic flow, pressure, lifting arrangement and carrier capacity must also match the selected cropper.
