Breaker Kits
High-flow one-way hydraulics for demanding attachments.
HKX Breaker kits are designed around single-acting attachments that require pressurized supply oil and a planned return path. Prepared tubing, hoses, lock-off valves, controls, mounting hardware, and instructions create a complete installation package.
The published breaker configuration is sized at 80 percent of one pump at approximately 25 feet per second and uses 5,000 PSI-rated hoses. Actual flow settings, attachment requirements, and machine capability must be confirmed for every application.
Published HKX Specifications
Understand the standard configuration before final selection.
These legacy HKX values describe the standard kit basis. Final component selection and machine settings require application confirmation.
- Single Acting
- Hydraulic system: one-way oil
- 80% of 1 Pump
- Published sizing at approximately 25 FPS
- 5,000 PSI
- Published hose pressure rating
- Upgradeable
- Supports compatible future configuration changes
Attachment Applications
Power more than hydraulic breakers.
The single-acting circuit can support several one-way oil attachment categories when their flow, pressure, return, and case-drain needs are verified.
Compactors
Support compatible hydraulic compactors with planned supply and return routing.
Mowers
Configure compatible mower applications after duty-cycle, cooling, and case-drain requirements are reviewed.
Pile Drivers
Deliver one-way auxiliary flow for compatible pile-driving attachments.
System Features & Options

The published HKX configuration combines machine-specific routing with prepared controls, fittings, valves, clamps, electrical components, and installation guidance.
Configuration details
Controls
Joystick, foot pedal, or foot switch.
Recommended Options
Two-pump flow, oversized tubing for special applications, in-monitor control where applicable, and quick disconnects.
Routing & Connections
Preformed, powder-coated tubing routes to the end of the arm and terminates with quarter-turn ball-valve shutoffs.
Application & Installation Planning
Match the system to the excavator and attachment.
Accurate machine and attachment details help HKX identify the appropriate circuit, components, controls, routing, and installation support.
-
01
Identify the excavator
Provide the manufacturer, model, serial number, current hydraulic equipment, and any relevant machine options.
-
02
Define the attachment
Confirm the attachment make and model, required functions, flow, pressure, case drain, and connection requirements.
-
03
Select controls and routing
Review operator controls, oil sources, component placement, boom and arm routing, and service-access needs.
-
04
Prepare and support the installation
Use the packaged components and instructions, with HKX technical assistance available for installation and future parts identification.
