The hydraulic rock splitter is a non-explosive, quiet, and dust-free method for breaking large rocks and concrete structures. It’s designed for environments where traditional blasting methods are unsafe or restricted, such as urban areas, tunnels, or near sensitive structures. Using hydraulic pressure, the splitter creates a force that breaks rock with precision and minimal disturbance.
YG offers highly reliable and efficient rock splitters that are easy to operate and suitable for a variety of construction and demolition applications.

Advantages Of Using A Hydraulic Rock Splitter
- Safe and silent: No vibrations, flying debris, or risk of explosion
- Environmentally friendly: No dust or toxic emissions
- Cost-effective: Lower labor and maintenance costs
- Precise breaking: Controlled splitting prevents overbreak and structure damage
- Versatile: Can be used vertically or horizontally, depending on the site requirement
- Minimal prep work: No heavy setup or extensive safety barriers needed
These advantages make rock splitters an ideal solution for modern construction and mining demands.
Concrete Splitter: Breaking Concrete Without Blasting
A concrete splitter is a type of rock splitter that focuses on breaking reinforced concrete in buildings, bridges, and pavements. Contractors or workers find it ideal for selective demolition when they must preserve the structural integrity in surrounding areas.
Applications include:
- Demolishing old concrete floors and columns
- Removing reinforced concrete walls
- Creating expansion joints in tunnels and subways
- Controlled breaking in chemical plants or nuclear facilities
In all cases, the splitter delivers a clean, controlled break with minimal noise and no dust pollution, making it suitable for residential and industrial sites alike.


Applications Of Rock Splitting Equipment
Workers can use the rock splitting equipment in a wide range of fields. Its versatility makes it indispensable in various industries where traditional methods are limited or unsafe.
- Mining and quarrying: Breaking boulders and extracting large stone blocks
- Urban demolition: Safe concrete removal without damaging nearby structures
- Tunnel excavation: Controlled rock breaking in confined underground spaces
- Road and bridge construction: Removing old concrete for repair and rebuilding
- Foundation work: Breaking through tough bedrock in high-rise projects
These applications show how this equipment supports projects that require silent, safe, and clean operations.
Working Principle Of A Hydraulic Rock Splitter
The working principle of a hydraulic rock splitter is based on hydraulic pressure applied to a wedge inserted into a pre-drilled hole. The force expands the wedge, applying outward pressure until the rock or concrete splits.
- Drill a hole in the material to be split (typically 90mm diameter, 400–800mm deep)
- Insert the hydraulic wedge block into the hole
- Apply hydraulic pressure via a power unit
- The wedge expands, creating stress that fractures the material
- Repeat the process in a sequence to complete the break
This method ensures precision with no vibration, ideal for tight or regulated job sites.
