Heavy duty LEWIS RIPPERS are designed and manufactured by Gessner Industries of Toowoomba in a number of configurations to suit the specific requirements of individual makes and models of DOZERS, LOADERS and GRADERS.
Rippers can be constructed with one, two, three or more ripping shanks, which can be rigid or swivel mounted.
Shanks are manufactured to exacting standards from wear resistant, high tensile alloy steel and are fitted with replaceable ground engaging points.
The LEWIS Variable Pitch Ripper significantly increases machine performance
Lewis Rippers are manufactured with either rigid or swivel mounted shank boxes to suit all major makes and models of loaders.
Lewis Rippers are designed and constructed with a number of shank configurations to suit individual requirements of all grader operators.
Rippers for smaller horse power graders have scarifier shank boxes mounted through the beam and ripper boxes mounted on the rear.
For added strength, rippers for larger horse power graders have been designed with a wider section ripper beam. This means that both scarifier and ripper shank boxes are an integral part of the beam. This allows for scarifier boxes to be arranged in a "W" pattern, greatly increasing trash clearance capabilities.
