Frost Ripper / Frost Hook for Excavators – Efficient breaking of hard and frozen ground.

A frost ripper for excavators, also known as a frost hook, is a powerful attachment for operations where the ground is too hard for traditional buckets. It is used effectively to break up frozen ground, compacted soil, stone, old asphalt, and hardened soil layers.

Frost rippers from SE Equipment are developed for Nordic conditions with a focus on design, quality, and durability – for contractors and resellers who require reliable tools without downtime.

What is a frost ripper / frost hook?

A frost ripper is a specialized attachment for excavators that concentrates the machine’s power into a heavy-duty, hardened tooth. This makes it possible to penetrate extremely hard materials with high precision and minimal strain on both the machine and the operator.

Unlike a standard bucket, a frost hook provides:

• Improved control during ripping operations
• Reduced unnecessary wear
• More efficient work in difficult ground conditions

Advantages of frost rippers from SE Equipment

Powerful ripping – The specially designed tooth delivers maximum breakout force, making the ripping of frozen ground, stone, and heavily compacted layers faster and more controlled.

Durable construction – Manufactured from high-quality, wear-resistant steel for long service life even in demanding applications – in line with SE Equipment’s focus on durability and total cost efficiency.

Optimized fit – The frost ripper is available for multiple coupling systems and is engineered for correct fit directly on your excavator. This minimizes the risk of play, incorrect load distribution, and unnecessary downtime.

Designed for efficient operation – By using the right tool for the right job, wear on other attachments is reduced while saving time, fuel, and money.
