The Rears Power Shredder is the toughest and most durable shredder in the lineup, designed to handle extreme conditions with ease. Available in 7', 8', and 10-1/2' widths, it features a robust 3/8" housing and a 7/8" wall rotor drum, built to withstand demanding applications. While its shred quality is lower compared to the ASH and AHD models, the Power Shredder compensates with its heavy-duty construction and reduced maintenance requirements. To enhance shredding performance, shear teeth, shear channels, and rakes are integrated into the design. Additionally, optional liners and AR shear teeth provide extended durability and service life. This shredder is particularly well-suited for rough citrus applications, where tough conditions demand exceptional resilience.
The FL982A75 hammer assemblies are foot long, tungsten carbide surfaced hammers built to withstand a beating day in and day out.
The Power Shredders come standard with single floating rake teeth on 12" centers. These rake teeth help to maintain a constant relationship with the blade swing, even over uneven terrain. This tight and consistent tolerenace helps to achieve better feeding, shred quality, and eliminates brush buildup on the rakes.
The Power Shredders may be equipped with double fork rakes that drastically reduce the spacing between rakes. This decreased rake spacing helps to feed material better into the swing line of the rotor, thus increasing shred quality of brush.
The FLMB400 / FLMB400E are a double row spherical expansion bearing. These bearings are designed to handle angular misalignment, ensuring smooth operation even if the shaft or housing is not perfectly aligned. This feature reduces the risk of premature wear or failure. Double-row spherical roller bearings can carry both radial and axial loads simultaneously, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications such as brush shredding. As an expansion bearing, small amounts of shaft movement is allowed due axial loading (common in brush shredding) preventing excessive bearing stress and increasing bearing longevity.
Rears Shredders utilize our Constant Velocity Hitch
for superior tracking: keep on running through 90° turns. Telescoping driveline eliminated protects tractor PTO
Utilizes the tractor 3-point hitch removes the requirement to establish a hitch pin center point
Our Constant Velocity Hitch offers several advantages over a CV Driveline:
Smooth Power Transfer: It ensures uniform rotational speed, even when the tractor and
implement are at different angles, reducing vibrations and noise.
Flexibility: It allows for efficient operation during sharp turns or uneven terrain,
maintaining consistent performance.
Durability: These hitches are designed to handle high torque loads and are very robust. CV hitches
do NOT utilize a CV driveline (which may be expensive and difficult to maintain).
Reduced Wear and Tear: By minimizing vibrations and shocks, it helps extend the lifespan of connected machinery.
The Power Shredder Hitch is equipped with spherical roller bearings and a larger higher rated jack which contribute to increased durability
and ease of maintenance.
The heavy-duty welded axle, standard on PFS units, replaces the traditional clamp-on dual struts with welded-on struts. This design significantly reduces maintenance requirements and has been highly effective for users who opt for it.
All pulshredders (ASH, LSH, and AHD models) come equipped with a channel shearbar that e nhances brush shredding efficiency. The spinning rotor works by feeding the material into the shear channels, where it is shattered effectively. The channel shearbar is designed with very tight tolerances between the hammer and the sides of the shear channel, ensuring precise shredding and superior quality results. The channel shearbar is bolted into the housing and can be replaced.
All pulshredders (ASH, LSH, and AHD models) are equipped with at least one angle shearbar, which plays a critical role in pulverizing brush. Material is directed along the swing line and crushed against the interference angle, assisting in effective shredding. Through extensive refinement over various iterations, the position of the shearbar in the housing and size of the angle shearbar have been optimized to deliver the highest possible shred quality. If the fine shred kit option is chosen, an additional angle shear bar will be added to the shredder. The angle shearbars are bolted into the housing and can be replaced relatively easily.
All pulshredders (ASH, LSH, and AHD models) are also equipped with a full width set of shear channels to increase shred quality even further. These channels provide a surface for material to shred against. Shear channels are hard surfaced for longevity and contribute significantly to increased overall material shred quality. These shear channels are welded to a replaceable liner which is bolted into the housing.
