Overview
The Steelwrist X07 is a tiltrotator optimised for compact excavators between 5 and 7 tonnes. Steelwrist’s small tiltrotators are built around flexibility, low building height and low weight, which matter most on compact machines, and use a steel cast structure to keep weight down while maximising strength. Exc@v8 supplies it in the UK.
Where the X07 fits
Compact excavators are often used for landscaping, material handling, stump removal and light demolition. A tiltrotator extends the reach into tight spaces and cuts the machine movements needed on site, which saves time and reduces wear on the machine and its surroundings. It is especially useful for trench digging and sewer lines in utility work, and with a grapple it suits clearing debris or placing and removing trees.
A compact excavator with a tiltrotator suits construction work on busy, confined city sites. Direct Fit is often chosen at this size, where the tiltrotator stays permanently mounted on the dipper arm.
Couplers and mounting
The X07 connects to the excavator through an S40, SQ40, S45 or S50 top, or Direct Fit (DF). The tool side takes S40, SQ40, S45 and S50 quick couplers, following Steelwrist’s symmetrical S-standard. Steelwrist SQ is its automatic oil connection technology for changing and connecting hydraulic work tools.
With the SQ40 coupler the SQ technology reaches compact excavators: it allows quick changes of high-flow powered work tools without leaving the cab. SQ40 follows the symmetrical standard for S40, so existing S40 work tools fit without adaptations.
A Direct Fit unit takes pin diameters of 45–55 mm at pin distances of 220–310 mm, fits a dipper arm up to 240 mm wide and includes a 2-tonne lifting hook.
The X07 is also available with Verachtert (CW) or Lehnhoff (HS) coupler interface. With Verachtert (CW) the tiltrotator always has a Direct Fit configuration.
Building height, length and cylinder width differ between these configurations, so those figures in the technical data are ranges. The product sheet lists every combination.
Work tool safety
The tool-side safety solution depends on the coupler: Front Pin Hook (FPH), for safe work tool changes on the S40 and SQ40; Front Pin Lock (FPL), a mechanical lock of the front shaft that significantly limits the risk of an unintended work tool drop on the S45 and S50.
Hydraulics and control
The X07 runs on an oil flow of 42 l/min at up to 210 bar.
Steelwrist supplies two types of tiltrotator control system: the QuantumConnect platform, which includes the InstallMate and QuantumConnect apps and stays up to date through its connectivity, and the more basic four hose proportional machine control. The tiltrotator is delivered with a system that fits the excavator whether it needs a two or four hose solution.
Options
A gripper cassette with a finger gripper can be fitted to give the excavator more flexibility when handling objects, and can be retrofitted. Steelwrist also offers central lubrication fitted at the factory, compatible with all central lubrication systems on the market.
