The Atlas Copco’s SB202 hammer and mini excavator is proving to be a winning combination.

The recent fitment of Atlas Copco’s SB202 hammers onto Komatsu PC55 mini excavators has proven to be a winning combination that has yielded high production rates for EPH Plant Hire owing to the reliability of these hammers.

Fitted with the hydraulic hammers, the mini excavators provide flexible rock breaking solutions for small rural infrastructure projects that have limited working space due to the fact that most of the water pipes, electrical cabling and road infrastructure pass through densely populated areas. “This has culminated in a significant demand for smaller excavators fitted with hydraulic hammers capable of completing such projects,” says EPH Plant Hire, sales/plant manager, Brendan Badenhorst. “The SB202 hammer and mini excavator is proving to be a winning combination.”

Badenhorst points out that as a rental company, reliability is paramount for EPH. “Cheap imports are not a long-term solution for any company. While they may initially save you money, their long-term expenses, servicing and maintenance costs are endless.

“The value of Atlas Copco equipment lies in quality, reliability, performance and low maintenance that deliver lowest cost of ownership, rapid return on investment and, most importantly, satisfied EPH customers,” he says.
