Why Choose Our Cat 311 Ripper?
💡 Single-Tooth Concentrated Power: By focusing your excavator’s full hydraulic force onto one hardened point, our ripper achieves 3× higher efficiency than traditional breaking methods — without the noise, vibration, or cost of a hydraulic hammer .
- Extra Thick Steel Shank: 75 mm reinforced shank with integrated reinforcing gussets distributes stress evenly, resisting bending and fracture even under continuous high-load operation .
- Replaceable Tooth & Wear Shroud: Standard D6-size tip can be quickly swapped when worn; optional wear shroud and added side wear protection significantly extend the ripper’s service life .
- High-Performance Alloy Steel: 40CrNi2Ma chromium-nickel-molybdenum alloy delivers exceptional crack and deformation resistance, withstanding temperatures from extreme cold to +400°C .
- Reduced Machine Stress: The ripper’s optimized geometry converts tractive force into concentrated breaking power, reducing excessive stress on your excavator’s hydraulic system and boom structure .
- Precision Fitment: 65 mm pin holes, 16″ pin center distance, and 8.75″ ear-to-ear spacing match CAT 311/312 “312 linkage” OEM dimensions for plug-and-play installation — no modifications required .
- Factory-Direct Value: Genuine-level build quality at a competitive aftermarket price. Custom branding, packaging, and OEM/ODM manufacturing available.

⚠️ Fitment Tip: While this ripper is designed for CAT 311/312/313/314 with 312 linkage (65 mm pins, 16″ pin centers), we strongly recommend confirming your machine’s exact pin diameter, ear-to-ear distance, and pin center measurement before ordering. Share your excavator’s model and serial number, or send photos of the stick mounting interface — our technical team will verify compatibility and customize the ripper if needed .
