FINLAY has added the J-1280 jaw crusher to its tracked mobile crusher lineup.
Designed to bridge the gap between the J-1175 and the larger J-1480, the new model is described as an ‘ideal’ solution for medium-sized quarries and larger contractors seeking high capacity without the logistical challenges of heavier equipment.
Featuring a 1200mm x 820mm jaw chamber, Finlay explained that the J-1280 offers a ‘wide gape and robust throughput capabilities’ for hard rock applications.
Martin Conway, global sales & marketing director for Finlay, said, “This balance of size and mobility has been a direct response to strong feedback from the Finlay distribution network, who emphasised the need for a lighter, more transportable model yet with the same jaw dimensions of our highest-selling units in several key regions.”
Features include a hydrostatic drive system. Unlike direct drive alternatives, Finlay added that the hydrostatic setup allows the crusher to continuously operate in reverse. This is critical for clearing blockages quickly and safely, without the need to manually lift material from the chamber.
The J-1280 is available in three feed-in configurations: a standard vibrating grizzly feeder (VGF), a pre-screen option, and an extended pan feeder with pre-screen.
“This latest addition to the jaw crusher lineup reflects our commitment to engineering excellence, customer feedback, and operational efficiency,” added Martin Conway. “With a focus on safety, transport efficiency, and high-performance crushing, the Finlay J-1280 is a machine built not only to meet the demands of today’s quarrying and contracting environments but to exceed them.”
