The Altrad Generation Raptor Brace Hydraulic Unit is the central component of the Raptor Brace System, providing the hydraulic force that extends and locks the brace frame against trench sheets or sheet piles. Working with Raptor Brace Beams, the hydraulic unit adjusts the complete bracing assembly to the precise excavation width required, securing the frame without manual adjustment at depth.
Weighing 730kg, the Hydraulic Unit is built for demanding cofferdam, chamber construction, tank installation, and drive pit applications where the bracing system must maintain consistent pressure and structural integrity throughout the project.
The Raptor Brace Hydraulic Unit is available for hire and purchase from Altrad Generation branches across the UK and Ireland.
