Used Jaw Crusher for Sale 150 tph in South Africa
For quarry and mining operators in South Africa and Botswana, buying a used jaw crusher for sale 150 tph in South Africa can be a cost‑effective alternative to new equipment. A well‑maintained used jaw crusher delivers reliable primary crushing for hard rock at a fraction of the new price. However, careful inspection and refurbishment are key to avoiding unexpected downtime. Below we explain typical price ranges, what to check before buying, and how OCP Mechanical Company supplies quality‑checked used crushers with warranty options.
Typical Price Range for a Used 150 tph Jaw Crusher
When searching for a used jaw crusher for sale 150 tph in South Africa, prices vary based on age, hours, condition, and brand. A used Type J jaw crusher (e.g., 750x1,060 mm feed opening, 110‑132 kW) typically sells for $25,000 – $55,000 USD, depending on whether it includes a motor, base frame, and spare parts. This is often 40‑60% less than a new unit.
OCP offers certified used Type J jaw crushers that have been inspected, tested, and fitted with new wear parts as needed. Note: Product data and current inventory are constantly updated; for the latest list of used crushers, please contact our online customer service.
Many quarries in Gauteng, Limpopo, and North West Province have purchased used jaw crushers in this range, achieving production of 130‑170 tph at CSS of 120‑150 mm. Lower prices may indicate machines with worn bearings, cracked frames, or missing parts – buyer beware.
The above values are for illustration only. OCP continuously improves its products. Contact our online team for the most current data sheet.
What to Inspect Before Buying Used
To ensure your used jaw crusher for sale 150 tph in South Africa is a sound investment, perform these checks or ask for a certified inspection report:
Main frame – Look for cracks or weld repairs, especially around the bearing housings and the front frame. Cracks can propagate and cause catastrophic failure.
Jaw plates and toggle plate – Worn plates are normal, but check that the toggle plate is not cracked. A broken toggle plate indicates a past overload event; inspect the pitman for damage.
Bearings – Listen for rumble or knocking during test run. Replace bearings if needed (cost $2,000‑$5,000 for a set).
Hydraulic adjustment (if fitted) – Check for oil leaks and smooth operation. Rebuild kits are available but add cost.
Flywheels and sheaves – Check for cracks and worn keyways.
OCP’s used crushers come with a detailed inspection report and a 3‑month warranty on major components (frame, bearings, pitman). Many buyers in Botswana’s diamond fields have found that a pre‑purchase inspection by an independent engineer is money well spent.
Costs Beyond the Purchase Price
The advertised used jaw crusher for sale 150 tph in South Africa price is only the beginning. Budget for these additional expenses:
New jaw plates – A set of Mn18%+Cr plates costs $3,500‑$5,500 and typically lasts 2,000‑4,000 hours in hard rock.
New toggle plate and seats – $500‑$1,000.
Motor and drive – If not included, a 132 kW motor plus V‑belts and pulley adds $6,000‑$10,000.
Transport – Moving a 15‑20 ton crusher from Johannesburg to, say, Gaborone or Cape Town costs $1,500‑$4,000.
Installation – Simple foundation and crusher setting by a local rigger: $3,000‑$6,000.
Total delivered and reconditioned cost is often $35,000‑$75,000, still well below new price (typically $80,000‑$120,000 for a comparable model). Many operations recover the investment within 6‑12 months.
As a direct‑selling manufacturer, OCP also supplies new wear parts for used crushers at factory prices, with delivery to Johannesburg, Durban, or Cape Town within 5‑7 days.
