Overview
Indeco HP hydraulic hammers are an outstanding expression of Italian high-tech and construction quality applied to demolition. In-depth research into hydraulic systems, materials, heat treatment and accessories have enabled Indeco to establish a reputation on markets throughout the world for product excellence.
With its many different models, divided into large, medium and small and available in various versions, Indeco has the widest range of hammers available anywhere in the world. This provides end-users with a huge choice, ensuring that they can find the ideal hammer/excavator match.
Small hammers
Despite their compact size, Indeco’s range of small hammers are exceptionally reliable, quiet and efficient, and best suited for such jobs as excavations work, highway maintenance, demolitions and recycling in city areas and building refurbishment.
Their versatility makes them extremely efficient in specialist jobs such as maintenance in iron foundries.
Medium hammers
Their excellent weight/power ratio and their slimline structure make the mid-range Indeco hammers the ideal choice for classical applications, such as demolishing buildings, earthworks in inhabited areas and secondary demolitions in quarries, as well as for more specific tasks.
In fact, mid-range hammers are used for underwater work (using a special kit) as well as for digging narrow deep trenches and removing casting slag from blast furnaces.
Large hammers
Combining maximum power with the effectiveness of intelligent technology, Indeco’s larger hammers are unbeatable when it comes to completing the toughest jobs in the shortest possible time-frame – whether it’s the biggest demolition jobs, primary breaking in quarries, digging foundations, or excavating huge rail and road tunnels.

Accessories
A set of accessories and special components to complete our tools in order to meet all of your possible needs.
Indeconnect
The ‘Indeconnect’ system consists of a device equipped with 4G technology for a wireless connection to the network, to be mounted on the equipment, and a cloud-based web platform you can access from mobile devices (with an app) or from PC, that lets you view the data transmitted in real time by each installed device: working hours, working position in space, hydraulic oil temperature, ambient temperature, GPS position, and more.
CloseIDA (Indeco Dust Abatement) System
An innovative system that is particularly effective for reducing wear and tear on components, extending the working life of the hammer and protecting operators against exposure to microparticles of crystalline silica. It consists of a jet of high-pressure water spray, emitted by a number of nozzles on the casing, which prevents dust from harming both the tool and the operator. Recently updated to comply with the latest OSHA directives, the system is available in two different versions:
CloseHigh-pressure system
Available for medium-large to large hammers, it is made up of an air compressor and a high-pressure water pump, mounted onto the excavator and driven by two hydraulic motors powered by the excavator. A set of electrohydraulic valves enable the excavator operator to activate the pump and compressor independently, thus starting up either one or both of the protection devices: the dust-abatement kit, which uses a fine water spray and the dust shield, which uses the internal pressurization of the hammer to prevent dust, water and debris from getting into the hammer through the bushing, as can occur during tunnel demolitions and underwater excavations.
CloseLow-pressure system
Designed for smaller hammers and pulverizers, the technology involves inserting a vaporizing plate with four nozzles, where the mounting bracket is attached, which enables it to cover the whole working area (whatever position it is in) and reduce the amount of dust produced, even on windy days. The new system only needs a low-pressure water supply and the sprayers turn on automatically only when the attachment is in action, thus also reducing water consumption.
CloseAnti-Grease and Anti-Dust System
This system, which is crucial when working in dusty environments and when tunnelling, is made up of two collars. Both are adherent to the tool, and which prevent dust from getting in and grease from getting out, improving lubrication levels and thus lengthening the working life of the main hammer components.
CloseIndeco Lube automatic greasing systems
Among the most important accessories on hydraulic hammers, automatic greasing systems developed exclusively for Indeco by Bekalube technical staff are designed to keep hammers in perfect working order, by using just the right amount of lubricant and cutting out the down times needed for the operator to carry out manual greasing. There are two types of greasing unit – either an on-board system that can be fitted directly onto the hammer and which uses a cartridge pump, or else an excavator-mounted unit with its own grease tank.
CloseCarrier-mounted systems
In both cases, these systems are connected to the hammer through a single centralized greasing point, which enables the lubricant to reach all of the bushings and the moving parts at the tool, inside the hammers and on the retaining axle.
Carrier-mounted systems
- Five-litre hydraulically or electrically-operated tank
- 18/20 kg hydraulically or electrically-operated drum immersion pump
On-Board greasing systems - Small
Single-shot cartridge pump with only one hydraulic line, which accepts a single 250 or 400 g cartridge – for hammers from the HP 550 to the HP 1800
CloseSpecial Indeco Supreme lubricant
It is vital that a specific lubricant be used to ensure the durability of the main components of the hammer. Indeco’s Supreme lubricant, with solid additives is particularly resistant to oxidation, can withstand extreme pressures and temperatures and shows excellent adhesion and water-resistance.
