Product Overview

The R‑Series is TGEC's compact‑profile fully‑hydraulic breaker, designed for construction, demolition, and site work on 20‑ to 40‑ton excavators. Like all TGEC gas‑free breakers, it runs entirely on hydraulic pressure – no nitrogen gas, no charging, no gas seals. The fully‑hydraulic valve handles both strokes, which simplifies maintenance and keeps performance consistent across temperature and altitude changes. That's a real advantage for contractors working across multiple sites with varying conditions. Part of the TGEC excavator gas‑free hydraulic breakers lineup.

Four models cover carriers from 20 to 40 tons, with operating weights from 320 to 410 kg and tool diameters from 70 to 85 mm. Impact rates range from 440 to 990 bpm depending on the model and flow, with operating pressure from 120 to 125 bar and oil flow from 30 to 100 L/min. The R‑Series is for contractors who want a reliable, low‑maintenance breaker for everyday demolition and construction – good performance, smooth operation, and no nitrogen charging or gas-pressure maintenance. For more power, check the mid‑size M‑Series (10‑32 ton machines) or the heavy‑duty V‑Series (18‑120 ton carriers).

Compact Fully-Hydraulic Design

The R‑Series packs a fully‑hydraulic impact system into a compact package. A precision hydraulic valve shuttles high‑pressure oil between the upper and lower piston chambers, driving the piston through both strokes with hydraulic force alone – no nitrogen gas assist, no gas chamber, no charge valve, no gas seals. The compact profile keeps the breaker nimble in tight spots like building foundations, utility trenches, and confined job sites.

Key design features: low overall height improves visibility and fits under overhead restrictions. Rubber isolation mounts between the power cell and housing cut vibration to the excavator, making the operator's day more comfortable and extending boom and stick life. The fully‑hydraulic system delivers smooth, consistent impacts – the hydraulic valve controls piston motion precisely, reducing harsh shock loads to the carrier.

Application Scenarios

  • General construction and site work: Break footings, remove rock from excavation, break hardpan, and prep ground for foundations.

  • Building demolition: Bust slabs, foundations, walls, and structural elements. The compact profile fits tight spaces.

  • Road and utility work: Break asphalt, concrete, and rock in road repair, utility trenches, and pipeline jobs. Gas‑free design simplifies maintenance across multiple sites.

  • Landscaping and site prep: Remove rock, break up hard ground, and prep areas for drainage and development.

Hydraulic Requirements and Carrier Matching

Flow: 30–100 L/min depending on model. Pressure: 120–125 bar operating, relief at 180 bar. Aux circuit needs relief valve set to spec, shut‑off valve, and rated hoses. Case drain recommended – max back pressure 10 bar. The gas‑free design means no nitrogen checks, but make sure your excavator's cooling system can handle the extra load, especially in hot weather.

When picking a model, verify carrier weight range, auxiliary flow, and lift capacity at working reach. Mounting brackets are custom‑built per make/model; quick coupler compatible. Order with: make, model, weight, flow, pressure, pin spacing, pin diameter, stick width, and coupler type if used.

Maintenance

Daily: grease tool bushing every 2–4 hours, inspect tool and retaining pins for wear. Check front head bushing weekly – replace if clearance exceeds limit. Inspect hoses and through‑bolt torque. No nitrogen checks – one less thing to worry about.

Full service – seals, piston, valve, bushings – every 500‑1000 hours depending on duty. Any qualified hydraulic tech can handle it; no special breaker tools or nitrogen gear needed. TGEC stocks full spare parts for all R‑Series models. Accepts all four standard hydraulic breaker chisel types: moil point, blunt tool, flat wedge, and conical point, 70–85 mm diameters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the R-Series gas-free hydraulic breaker?+

The R-Series gas-free hydraulic breaker is the compact-profile line in TGEC fully-hydraulic breaker lineup, engineered for general construction, demolition and site work on excavators from 20 to 40 tons. It uses a fully-hydraulic operating principle that eliminates the nitrogen gas chamber entirely, replacing the traditional gas-assist return stroke with precision hydraulic valve control. The R-Series covers four models with operating weights from 320 to 410 kg, tool diameters from 70 to 85 mm, impact rates from 440 to 990 bpm and oil flow requirements from 30 to 100 L/min. It is the compact model below the mid-size M-Series and heavy-duty V-Series in the TGEC gas-free breaker lineup.

What does gas-free mean in a hydraulic breaker?+

Gas-free means the breaker does not use a nitrogen gas chamber to assist the piston return stroke or control blow energy. Traditional hydraulic breakers use nitrogen gas in the accumulator to store energy and assist the piston return stroke, requiring periodic gas charging and pressure monitoring. A gas-free breaker uses hydraulic pressure alone to control both the power stroke and return stroke, with the breaker valve managing the timing and energy of each blow. The primary benefits include simplified maintenance with no nitrogen charging required, fewer potential failure points from gas seals and charging valves, and more consistent performance across varying temperatures and altitudes where nitrogen gas pressure can fluctuate. For construction companies operating across multiple job sites, this consistency is particularly valuable.

What applications are suitable for the R-Series?+

The R-Series is suitable for general construction and site work including breaking concrete footings, removing rock from excavation areas, breaking hardpan and preparing ground for foundations. It is also used for building demolition involving concrete slabs, foundations, walls and structural elements, road and utility work including asphalt removal, concrete breaking and utility trench installation, and landscaping and site prep including rock removal, hard ground breaking and area preparation for drainage and development. The compact profile and low overall height make it well suited for confined spaces such as building foundations and utility trenches. The gas-free design simplifies maintenance for construction crews who may not have specialized breaker service equipment on site.

What excavator sizes are compatible with the R-Series?+

The R-Series covers excavators from 20 to 40 tons across four models with overlapping carrier ranges. The TG-RS25 HB fits 20 to 25 ton excavators, the TG-RS36 HB fits 25 to 30 ton machines, the TG-RS38 HB fits 28 to 35 ton carriers, and the TG-RS45 HB fits 35 to 40 ton excavators. In addition to operating weight, the excavator must deliver the required auxiliary hydraulic flow ranging from 30 to 100 L/min depending on the model, with operating pressure from 120 to 125 bar. The lift capacity at working reach should be verified for the 320 to 410 kg breaker weight. Provide your excavator make, model and hydraulic specifications and our team can confirm the correct R-Series model.

How does the R-Series differ from the M-Series and V-Series?+

All three series use the same fully-hydraulic gas-free operating principle, but they differ in size, impact energy and target applications. The R-Series is the compact-profile line covering 20 to 40 ton excavators with tool diameters from 70 to 85 mm, designed for general construction, demolition and site work. The M-Series is the mid-size line covering 10 to 32 ton excavators with tool diameters from 100 to 140 mm, offering balanced performance for general demolition, road work and medium rock breaking. The V-Series is the heavy-duty line covering 18 to 120 ton excavators with tool diameters from 122 to 214 mm, delivering maximum impact energy for heavy industrial demolition, quarry production, mining and major infrastructure rock excavation. The V-Series also features heavier housing construction and reinforced mounting brackets to handle higher impact forces.

What maintenance does the R-Series require?+

The R-Series has simplified maintenance compared with traditional nitrogen-charged breakers because the nitrogen gas system is eliminated. Daily maintenance includes greasing the tool bushing every two to four hours of operation and inspecting the working tool and retaining pins for wear or damage. The front head bushing should be inspected weekly and replaced when clearance exceeds the manufacturer limit. Hydraulic hoses should be inspected periodically for leaks or abrasion, and through-bolts checked for proper torque. The fully-hydraulic design requires no nitrogen charging or gas pressure monitoring. Full service including seal replacement, piston inspection, valve overhaul and bushing replacement is recommended every 500 to 1000 hours. This service can be performed by any qualified hydraulic technician without specialized nitrogen charging equipment. TGEC supplies a full range of spare parts for all R-Series models.

What chisel types are available for the R-Series?+

The R-Series accepts all four standard hydraulic breaker chisel types. The moil point is the general-purpose tool for concrete demolition and rock breaking, with a pointed tip that concentrates impact energy for efficient fracturing. The blunt tool has a rounded tip for secondary crushing of oversized boulders and slag, distributing impact energy over a broader surface. The flat wedge has a wide blade for asphalt cutting and slab work, creating clean even break lines for pavement removal. The conical point is designed for penetrative breaking in medium-hard materials. All chisel types are available in tool diameters from 70 to 85 mm to match each R-Series model. For general construction and demolition, the moil point is the most commonly used chisel type.

Can TGEC provide custom mounting brackets for the R-Series?+

Yes. Every R-Series breaker can be supplied with a custom mounting bracket engineered for your specific excavator make, model and pin dimensions. We maintain bracket data for all major excavator brands including Caterpillar, Komatsu, Hitachi, Volvo, JCB, Kobelco, Doosan, Hyundai, Kubota, Yanmar, Takeuchi, Bobcat and many others.

What hydraulic requirements does the R-Series need?+

The R-Series requires auxiliary hydraulic flow ranging from 30 to 60 L/min for the TG-RS25 model to 50 to 100 L/min for the TG-RS36, TG-RS38 and TG-RS45 models, with operating pressure from 120 to 125 bar and relief pressure set at 180 bar. The auxiliary circuit should include a properly sized relief valve, a shut-off valve for isolating the breaker, and hydraulic hoses rated for the maximum operating pressure. A case drain line is recommended to protect the hydraulic valve assembly and seals from back pressure, with maximum back pressure limited to 10 bar. The excavator hydraulic cooling system should have sufficient capacity for the additional breaker load. The hydraulic oil should be clean and within the manufacturer recommended viscosity range, with a return line filter inspected and replaced regularly to prevent contamination from damaging the precision valve components and piston seals.
