HPX21 Dymax Excavator Tree Shear

FOR 25T-36T LARGE HYDRAULIC EXCAVATORS — 21″ CUT CAPACITY. IT’S THE BIGGEST FELLER OF THEM ALL.

The Dymax HPX21 is a powerful tree shear attachment for large excavators that is used for taking down the biggest and toughest trees on the planet. The Dymax HPX21 excavator tree shear delivers up to 100 tons of shearing force and cuts trees like a hot knife through butter.
