2018 Liebherr Slurry Wall Grab HSG 5-18 C/L

2018 Liebherr Slurry Wall Grab HSG 5-18 C/L

The hydraulic slurry wall grab is modularly designed and has an extremely robust base body. As the names of the grabs imply, HSG 5-18 C and HSG 5-18 L, slurry walls with thicknesses between 500 and 1800 mm can be installed, depending on the composition. The term C (compact) stands for the compact standard design, while the base body of the L (large) version is 2.5 m longer. The resulting total height of the grab at 9.5 m, as well as the high weight with low centre of gravity provide for even better vertical positioning and are especially advantageous when installing larger dimensioned slurry walls. When working in difficult ground conditions, the dead weight of the grab can be increased with an additional weight of 7 t. Bites with lengths of 2500-3600 mm and maximum depths of 90 m can be excavated with the grab.
