CP 1260 & CP 1290 – New Pneumatic Breakers from Chicago Pneumatic
Chicago Pneumatic launches two new pneumatic breakers. The CP 1260 and CP 1290 offer updated features, more power, and a sleek, ergonomic look in addition to the traditional CP ruggedness and reliability. Known for their power and durability, previous models CP 1230 and CP 1240 have lent many of their value-adding features to the new CP 1260 and CP 1290. Covering the two weight classes of 30 and 40 kg (60 lb and 90 lb), the new breakers offer a variety of 12 models suitable for the world’s different markets. Two spike drivers complete the offering, making this a full line for heavy breaking and other applications in construction, plant maintenance and general demolition work. "We have always been proud of our pneumatic breaker line ," explains Jan Ohlson, product manager for pneumatic tools. " However, the CP 1260 and CP 1290 stand ahead of the pack in terms of productivity and versatility ".
The list of added features include; a streamlined, flatter profile for improved operator visibility, and new durable polyurethane front-head springs that reduce wear and extend the life of the breaker and its components. There are also models with vibration-reducing handles to reduce operator fatigue.
In addition to various innovative features, the CP 1260 and CP 1290 offer even more power than previous models. " The CP 1260 and CP 1290 are strong, durable, and powerful breakers, " adds Ohlson. " Throughout the design process, our engineers have drawn upon the successes from previous generations of CP tools ."
Another key feature of the CP 1260 and CP 1290 breakers is that many of the components are compatible with previous generations of pneumatic breakers. More common parts between models means simplified maintenance and less need to keep many different parts in stock at service shops.
