Ripper tooth (construction machine)
A ripper tooth as an attachment for an excavator is suitable for the extraction of very hard types of rock , such as B. limestone , slate , Nagelfluhschichten , volcanic slag , basalt or granite .

In contrast to rock mining using blasting technology , the blasting-free mining of rocks offers some advantages, such as no handling of dangerous explosive materials, less noise, usually less dust, etc. Especially in the vicinity of residential areas, the blasting-free mining of rocks is the only permissible due to official requirements Possibility of dismantling. In such cases, the ripper can be used. Often it is only occasionally used to mine particularly hard layers of stone or rocks.
