SQ demolition

ECY Haulmark has signed a co-operation agreement with Steelwrist for the supply of fully automatic couplers and attachment interfaces.

The move means ECY Haulmark will now be offering the range of quick couplers and attachment adaptors from the Steelwrist SQ product line. 

The SQ system is suitable for all types of excavators working across demolition and construction sites.

Richard Yarwood, director of ECY Haulmark explained, “After a very careful evaluation of the market we visited the Steelwrist factory in the summer and have seen in their product many new innovations, features and benefits which we look forward to offering to our existing customer base of fully automatic quick coupler users.

“I am thrilled to be working with such a prestigious company as Steelwrist, this now puts ECY Haulmark in a position to offer a safer, more robust and more efficient concept of fully automatic quick couplers at better value than previously.”

Steelwrist said its quick couplers are well-known for safety features such as Front Pin Lock and a ‘robust’ steel casted design. SQ systems are said to be appreciated by customers for safety and also the ability to change hydraulic powered work tool in seconds without the operator needing to leave the cab of the machine.

Stefan Stockhaus, CEO of Steelwrist added, “ECY Haulmark are a well-known company throughout the United Kingdom demolition industry. Their focus on high-quality demolition attachments, fast support and service to the customers creates a platform for a successful co-operation between our two companies. There is a huge interest for our SQ product portfolio and with this agreement we will make sure that our customers in the UK demolition sector get the best possible support.”

Meanwhile, Steelwrist recently announced the firm has become a member of EDA – the European Demolition Association. EDA is a platform for national demolition associations, demolition contractors and suppliers.

EDA said, “Steelwrist’s advanced XControl control system and ergonomic joysticks are market-leading products. The demand for productivity is constantly rising and in some applications the need for quick work tool changes is almost continuous. 

“With Steelwrist SQ Auto Connection System the change between tiltrotator, breaker, crusher, shear, pulverizer, grapple, screening bucket, compactor, and any mechanical work tool, can be done without leaving the excavator cabin and in only seconds. A determined focus on robust and modern products, combined with fast service has been appreciated by an increasing number of customers.”
