  • New Telsmith H2238 Hydra-Jaw Model Offers Lower Operating Costs For Wheeled & Track-Mobile Units

    The new Telsmith H2238 is the latest addition to its Hydra-Jaw™ Series which is the result of advanced jaw crusher technology that offers lower operating costs, increased uptime and production capacity, streamlined operation and maintenance, and greater safety. The new Hydra-Jaw H2238 (as well as the previously introduced H2550) addresses reduced operating costs through a unique hydraulic toggle system which features a heavy-duty hydraulic cylinder that is custom-engineered for crushing applications. The unit’s innovative hydraulic adjustment, relief and clearing systems eliminate costly downtime and prevent component damage, while also protecting workers from risks typically associated with the operation and maintenance of older jaw crusher models. Importantly, the H2238 is engineered with a Pitman Lockout Pin that locks the Pitman in the forward position, allowing the toggle to be retracted and lowered away for maintenance in one safe, simple operation. Ideally suited to the needs of the portable crushing contractor, the FEA-designed H2238 (with a 22-in x 38-in jaw opening) is easy to install on wheeled or track-mobile units.
