Product Information:
The 15mm – 18mm Open Throat Strand Cropper is a powerful and efficient hydraulic cutting tool designed for quick and safe removal of excess strand from installed cable anchor support systems.
Built on the proven performance of the standard strand cropper, this modified open throat design allows for easier access to strands in confined spaces, improving both efficiency and operator convenience.
By cropping protruding strands, it eliminates potential safety hazards for workers operating or moving through active work areas in underground mining and construction environments.
The Open Throat Cropper operates through a double-acting hydraulic cylinder, powered by either a pneumatic or hand-operated hydraulic air pump.
Once connected, the precision-engineered punch and die mechanism delivers a clean, guillotine-style cut for smooth and efficient strand removal.
The open throat feature enables the operator to insert the strand laterally rather than threading it through, allowing for cropping in tight or obstructed areas.
Maximum Jacking Force: 290kN
Maximum Allowable Pressure: 60MPa
Tendon Cropping Limit: Ø15mm – Ø18mm
Weight: 12kg
Engineered for durability, precision, and operator safety, the 15mm – 18mm Open Throat Strand Cropper delivers exceptional performance and ease of use — making it the preferred tool for efficient strand removal in demanding mining and construction environments.
