Ice breaker

Changing buckets on earth moving equipment, overhaul of heavy plant, maintenance and servicing are never easy - particularly in sub-zero temperatures.

Morrison Construction, is using Slide Sledge, an award winning sledge hammer replacement, on a contract it is undertaking for the Government of South Georgia.

Introduced by specialist tool distributor Damar, the Slide Sledge ensures safety, speed and simplicity.

Using the Slide Sledge, a task such as pin removal on an excavator bucket is a oneman operation. Instead of needing a mate to hold the chisel, while another man swings the sledge hammer, Slide Sledge allows the operator to apply force directly to the pin, by driving the captive bar within the tool - making a safer and more productive solution.
