A rock splitter machine is a hydraulic device that breaks rocks and concrete using static pressure instead of impact. It produces no vibration, no dust, and very low noise. This makes it a safe choice for construction sites near homes, schools, or hospitals.

Advantages of Diesel Rock Splitter
A diesel rock splitter works without electricity. It is great for remote job sites. Here are its main advantages:
Powerful splitting force up to 800 tons
No need for power lines or generators
Low fuel consumption saves money
Easy to move around the site
Works in rain, snow, or hot weather
For cutting large concrete structures before splitting, you can use a Wire Saw & Wall Saw. This combination makes demolition much faster.
Applications of Electric Stone Splitter
- Breaking concrete floors inside buildings
- Removing old bridge foundations

Drill a hole of the correct diameter (42mm or 46mm).
Clean the hole with air or water.
Insert the wedge set into the hole.
Start the hydraulic pump (diesel or electric).
Push the lever to move the middle wedge forward.
