Building demolition is one of CMB’s strengths: our hydraulic grapples have various types of claws, to knock down and cut through reinforced walls and beams. They are precise, fast and reliable , indispensable features for aerial work. These products have the advantage of being interchangeable, allowing multiple operations with the same head.
An example? A demolition kit for the first part of the job might be right for you, followed by a shear kit to cut the precast rebar. With CMB demolition equipment, you’ll have an effective tool for every stage of your work.
Speaking of wrecking pliers: what is there to know? These are pieces of equipment that have become necessary and irreplaceable in a market that requires increasingly tight delivery times and where competition is fierce. The use of the CMB grapple makes it possible to plan and optimize the entire demolition process, facilitating the rapid disposal of material.
Demolishing with demolition pliers
Carrying out such operations professionally, optimizing time and resources, is now possible.CMB presents you with the CC series, the primary demolition grapple. Primary demolition is the initial part of a demolition, in which the construction is demolished and the rubble must then be crushed for later transport. The process is very delicate: a demolition carried out by inexperienced personnel could cause sudden collapse, due to structural failure, with damage to those working around it. Reinforced concrete, moreover, has iron reinforcements inside it that could injure the workers doing the work.

The CC series demolition grapple has technical features that are specially designed to make this type of work easy and safe . Starting with the structure, this grapple guarantees excellent performance and high levels of safety: the supporting body is made of Strenx 700 and the contact structure of Hardox 450, two types of certified Swedish steel of the highest quality.
The design allowed for a high concentrated force on the tip and teeth of the pliers, making it powerful but also extremely precise. Therefore, this breaker pliers is capable of crushing only the relevant part. Hardened pins and bushings, interchangeable teeth and fully protected inverted cylinders also provide the CC Series demolition cutter with long-lasting protection, ensuring a long life for the machine.

Lots of features in one demolition kit
Such safety and security features are also present on CMB’s MD Series demolition grapple, which is not really a grapple but rather a multi kit breaker. The MD acronym in fact identifies a versatile product, where several other elements can be mounted on a main structure to deal with all situations as the work progresses. So here it is that, after using the main demolition set, a shear kit can be mounted on it to cut concrete rebar.
All this always on the main head and in a matter of minutes, saving considerable time. The machine’s motor allows the grapple or shear to rotate at all times, for a better demolition result. There’s more: this motor is protected on all sides and totally reinforced, to avoid impacts against rubble that could damage it.
Finally, it should be noted that the CC Series demolition cutter can also be mounted as an additional kit on this MD Series, for an even better performing end result.
In conclusion, controlled demolition is a complex business that is not easy to manage. Especially in this historical phase of restarting, the great challenge of every contractor is to keep up with the many demands coming in and the resources to be optimized. It bears repeating: the right means make the difference in getting a leg up!
