Introducing the Break-O-Nator, a state-of-the-art stationary roller chain breaker that makes breaking large quantities of roller chains possible. Designed and manufactured in the USA from premium steel components, the Break-O-Nator is made to perform and last. The simple yet intuitive design allows for easy bench mounting of the unit, classifying it as a bench mount roller chain breaker. The standard manual breaker works by having a specially designed push cam that is activated when force is applied to the grip handle; the cam applies force to the back plate of the spring-loaded die set used, which then pushes the push pins into the rivets of a chain, at this point the pins are entirely pushed through, and the chain is broken. We also offer a hydraulic foot pedal setup and a hydraulic hand pump setup for improved brake output. Something important to note is that the Break-O-Nator is not designed to work with cottered roller chains, and before each breakage, it is imperative to ensure the chain is properly seated and aligned in the die.

Stationary Chain Breaker Configurations
We offer three different configurations of the BREAK-O-NATOR and a roller chain link counter for impeccable accuracy
:
Standard Manual Setup The standard Break-O-Nator is a manual hand action setup that utilizes a hand bar for breaking chains.
Hydraulic Hand Pump Setup The hydraulic hand pump configuration uses a hand pump for effortless breaking.
Hydraulic Foot Pedal Setup The foot pedal configuration utilizes shop air and is the most effortless configuration of the Break-O-Nator. If you already have the manual base unit and want to upgrade to the hydraulic version, conversion kits are available.
