PRODUCT DETAILS:

One Piece Construction

Barracuda balers are constructed using one-piece, side wall design with plate reinforcement. This design increases overall strength and durability to withstand everyday wear and tear.

Fully Lined Box

Replaceable liners in the compression box to assure long life.

Reliable Power

The Harris Barracuda has 118 tons of ram force and a ram face pressure of 114 pounds per square inch to easily handle tougher nonferrous applications.

Versatility

The Barracuda can be supplied with flared hopper, above ground conveyor, or in ground conveyor to meet your requirements.

Safety First

Harris horizontal balers utilize a Category 3 safety system. The system continuously checks the status and function of safety interlocks and emergency stop devices.

All access doors are provided with three (3) pole magnetic safety rated interlock switches.
