Tire Cutting with an Excavator – An Efficient Solution for Tire Recycling

Efficient tire cutting with an excavator is possible with an excavator-mounted hydraulic shear. A powerful metal shear, also known as a scrap shear or demolition shear, can be used for cutting tires into smaller sections as well as processing a wide range of other materials on demolition and recycling sites.
Excavator tire cutting makes it easier to process large and difficult-to-handle tires and prepare them for further processing. A hydraulic shear provides high cutting force and allows materials to be cut in a controlled manner directly at the worksite.

Hydraulic Shear for Tire Cutting

Green Attachments Yellow S Series hydraulic shears are designed for demanding metal cutting, demolition and recycling applications. The robust construction and optimized blade geometry provide efficient cutting performance, while the long cutting blades allow different types of materials to be processed effectively.

In addition to tire cutting, the hydraulic shear can be used for:

• Cutting rubber tires and other rubber materials
• Demolishing steel structures
• Cutting pipes and steel profiles
• Cutting metal sheets
• Processing and cutting scrap metal
• Pre-processing recyclable materials

The wear-resistant blades used in the Yellow S Series are designed for demanding professional applications. The blades and other wear parts can be replaced when necessary, making maintenance easier and helping extend the service life of the attachment.

An Efficient Tool for Tire Recycling

Large tires can be difficult to handle, transport and store in their original form. A hydraulic tire cutter for excavators allows tires to be cut into smaller sections, making material handling and transportation more efficient.

A hydraulic shear is particularly suitable for companies handling tires, scrap metal and other recyclable materials, as well as demolition and recycling contractors looking for a versatile excavator attachment.

Benefits of the Yellow S Hydraulic Shear

• High cutting force for efficient material processing
• Heavy-duty construction for demanding professional applications
• Wear-resistant blades for long service life
• Long cutting blades for processing large materials
• Easy-to-change mounting bracket for fitting the attachment to different excavators
• Speed valve for faster operation on models equipped with this feature
• Suitable for demolition, recycling and scrap material processing
