Genesis introduces new high-reach demolition tool

Genesis Attachments, Superior, Wisconsin, had introduced the GDT Razer demolition tool designed for today’s new classes of excavators and specialty, high-reach applications.

Featuring a lighter-weight design, the GDT 190 and GDT 290 are optimized to fit on standard 200- and 300-class excavators, respectively, as well as most high-reach demolition machines, according to the company. A short, flat-top head with bolt-on bracket makes installation simple, shortens the center of gravity and makes it easier to switch the tool between excavators.

The GDT Razer processes a variety of materials with its customizable crushing tooth configurations. The number of crushing teeth and their locations can be customized to meet project needs, and the bolt-on teeth are not only easy to install but also can be interchanged and reversed front to back for longer life and lower cost of operation and ownership, the company says.

Metal cutting blades in the back of the jaw are four-way indexable and feature an apex design that draws material deeper into the jaw for more efficient cutting.

The GDT Razer also features a pass-through lower jaw to prevent material buildup and jamming, as well as a reverse-mounted cylinder for protection from damaging debris.

Genesis Attachments designs and manufactures shears, grapples, concrete processors and specialty attachments for the scrap processing, demolition, material handling and offshore decommissioning industries.
