Finlay unveils the transport-friendly J-1280 Jaw Crusher

Finlay®, one of the global manufacturers of mobile crushing, screening, and conveying equipment has introduced the J-1280 Jaw Crusher, a powerful new addition to its tracked mobile crusher lineup. Designed to bridge the gap between the J-1175 and the larger J-1480, the J-1280 delivers excellent performance in a more transport-friendly package, making it the ideal solution for medium-sized quarries and larger contractors seeking high capacity without the logistical challenges of heavier equipment.

Featuring a large 1200 mm x 820 mm jaw chamber, the J-1280 offers a wide gape and robust throughput capabilities for hard rock applications. Despite its size, the machine is engineered for easier transport, weighing less than the J-1480 while maintaining the strength and durability Finlay is known for.

Martin Conway, Global Sales & Marketing Director for Finlay explains, “This balance of size and mobility has been a direct response to strong feedback from the Finlay distribution network, who emphasised the need for a lighter, more transportable model yet with the same jaw dimensions (1200 x 820 mm) of our highest-selling units in several key regions.”

One of the standout features of the J-1280 is its hydrostatic drive system. Unlike direct drive alternatives, the hydrostatic setup allows the crusher to continuously operate in reverse. This functionality is critical for clearing blockages quickly and safely, without the need to manually lift material from the chamber. The ability to unblock not only improves safety by reducing the need for working at height but also minimises downtime by eliminating the need for lock-out/tag-out procedures during unblocking.

The J-1280 is available in three feed-in configurations: a standard vibrating grizzly feeder (VGF), a pre-screen option, and an extended pan feeder with pre-screen. This flexibility allows operators to tailor the machine to their specific application needs, whether prioritising throughput, fines removal, or feed consistency.

 

“This latest addition to the jaw crusher lineup reflects our commitment to engineering excellence, customer feedback, and operational efficiency,” added Martin Conway. “With a focus on safety, transport efficiency, and high-performance crushing, the Finlay J-1280 is a machine built not only to meet the demands of today’s quarrying and contracting environments but to exceed them.”
