New pavement breaker from DeWalt

DeWalt announced new heavy-duty pavement breaker, D25980K. This breaker is designed with innovative features and patented technology to provide end users with increased durability, performance, and low vibration. The D25980K is ideal for plumbers, waterproofers, demolition crews, and public utilities workers to break up concrete and asphalt on the jobsite. DeWalt equipped the D25980K with metal, automotive-style seals on the ram and piston. These seals help to prevent dust and debris from entering the unit, ensuring a longer life. DeWalt designed the D25980K with an electronic control system, which provides the unit with a controlled start and constant speed under load.

The soft-start system allows the breaker to begin breaking as soon as the tool comes into contact with concrete by preventing the unit from 'walking'. The D25980K was engineered with the large hammer mechanism giving the unit 61 ft. lbs of impact energy. DeWalt designed its breaker with easy-to-access brushes and screws that users can effortlessly service on the jobsite, saving time and money.

Engineered to give the user the most comfortable breaking experience possible, DeWalt built the D25980K with a Shocks - Active Vibration Control system. The Shocks - Active Vibration Control combines shock mounted rubber coated handles with a counter balance mechanism located in the barrel of the tool. These features reduce the amount of vibration felt by the user, increasing comfort and providing users with less vibration. The D25980K has a vibration measurement of 6.6 meters per second sq.

The D25980K includes a hammer truck, D259803, so that users can easily transport the breaker. This multi-purpose cart allows the user to transport the breaker without having to remove the bit from the unit. Another innovative feature of the hammer truck is an on-board power cord wrap with quick release. A ramp on the back of the unit allows end users to easily load the tool into a truck or van.
