Shield your internal power cell components and restore the precise structural integrity of your high-impact machinery with the ultra-tough 173679 Front Head Housing Casting, custom-engineered for the heavy-duty Rammer 3288 Pro Hydraulic Hammer. Operating massive rock breaker attachments in the grueling, dusty, and high-temperature environments of the Middle East—including large-scale mining sectors across Saudi Arabia, intense trenching projects in Oman, and high-frequency infrastructure demolition in the UAE and Qatar—requires a front guide structure that completely resists crack propagation and continuous mechanical shock.
Since 2005, Merit has built an exceptional global reputation as a highly trusted, independent manufacturer and exporter of OEM-equivalent hydraulic breaker parts from Turkey. This precision-machined heavy front head serves as a direct-fit replacement for part number 173679 (Cross-Reference / Alternative codes: 173679A, Rammer 3288 Pro Front Head). Cast from advanced high-strength steel alloy and precision-bored to strict engineering tolerances, it ensures absolute vertical alignment for the moving piston, lower/upper bushings, and locking pins, preventing premature internal component galling or catastrophic pressure seal failure.
Key Features and Technical Advantages:
- Perfect Dimensional Match: CNC-machined to exact independent B2B aftermarket parameters to ensure a perfect fit with the main cylinder body and side bolts of the Rammer 3288 Pro series.
- Superior Shock-Absorbing Metallurgy: Built from proprietary steel castings treated to handle extreme structural stress and severe low-cycle fatigue under severe Gulf desert field climates.
- Proven Merit Reliability: Backed by decades of advanced industrial manufacturing experience, our direct-fit aftermarket solutions provide a rigid structure that maximizes kinetic energy transformation directly down the chisel tool.
- Essential Front Head Guide: Features precision-milled pin slots and inner bush pathways that minimize vibration feedback, extending the working lifespan of the complete breaker cell assembly.
Equipment Carrier Compatibility List: This premium replacement front head casting operates flawlessly across major heavy equipment carriers utilizing large-scale demolition hammers, such as:
- Caterpillar (CAT): Heavy tracked excavators (CAT 330, CAT 336, CAT 345 series)
- Komatsu: Industrial crawler excavation rigs (PC300, PC360, PC400 series)
- Volvo / Hitachi: Infrastructure excavation crawlers (EC300, EC380, ZX350, ZX400 series)
Customs and GCC Fast Shipping Logistics:
- Minimized Downtime: Prioritized heavy air cargo and maritime freight dispatched from our central hub in Turkey directly to major GCC commercial points (Riyadh, Dammam, Jebel Ali, Doha, Shuaiba) to cut your non-productive time (NPT).
