Product Description

Steelwrist Tilt-Rotators | Model X14 | Building Height 17.9" inches | Machine Weight Up-To 26,500 l Lbs | For Mid-Sized Excavators

Description

The Steelwrist X18 tiltrotator is designed to deliver the power and versatility that is a must for midsized excavators. Our tiltrotators have a low building height, high tilt angle and an unbeatable relationship between strength and weight thanks to steel cast components.

With a midsized excavator you can take on projects of varying sizes, from small scale landscaping tasks to roadwork or foundation work on construction sites. The X18 tiltrotator enhances the efficiency of the excavator as it enables you to rotate a work tool 360 degrees and tilt 45 degrees in each direction, with top of the class precision and controllability. This facilitates your work and makes you flexible to take on a variety of challenging new jobs.

Steelwrist quick couplers and tiltrotators follow the symmetrical standard (S-standard), the fastest growing coupler type internationally. The attachment coupler on the tiltrotator has Front Pin Lock (FPL) safety solution, a mechanical lock of the front shaft which significantly limits the risk of an unintended drop of work tools. The tiltrotator is delivered with a control system that fits your excavator regardless if you need a two or four hose solution. With a tiltrotator that has high flow hydraulics you will be able to use the tiltrotator in a more fuel efficient way and it allows for efficient use of high flow work tools. A robust and easily calibrated Absolute Rotation sensor in the high flow swivel gives high accuracy data to Machine Control Systems.

A Sandwich configuration is often chosen for this size of excavators. This means that a quick coupler is mounted on the excavator arm, making it possible to disconnect the tiltrotator and pick up and connect a work tool directly.

Steelwrist SQ is our high performing automatic oil connection technology used to easily change and connect hydraulic work tools on the excavator. All SQ products comply with the Open-S standard. This means that the SQ system is designed to be able to connect to other brands following the Open-S standard. S-type tiltrotators (from S50 and up) are upgradeable to SQ-type at a later stage.
