Herkules AFC2 – 15 Ton Aerosol Can Crusher (Dual Can Capacity)

The Herkules AFC2 is an industrial-grade solution designed for the high-efficiency disposal and recycling of used aerosol cans. Operating with a fully locked and sealed chamber, the AFC2 punctures, crushes, evacuates, and drains two aerosol cans in a minute or less. With nearly 15 tons of crushing force, it reduces aerosol can size by up to 98%, significantly lowering waste volume and hazardous disposal costs for your facility.

This workhorse is engineered for environmentally safe disposal. Its powerful air-bag technology is strong enough to shatter internal mixing balls, ensuring a complete crush and a rapid cycle time—sometimes in as little as 25 seconds. By capturing residual liquids and trapping odors, the AFC2 provides a clean, professional solution for high-volume automotive and industrial shops.

Superior Safety & Environmental Protection

Environment and operator safety are central to the AFC2’s design. It features a dual door/latch interlock safety system that prevents operation unless the chamber is securely sealed. During the crushing cycle, residual liquids are drained and captured in a collection container, while a carbon filter traps harmful contaminants and odors. An integrated fume extractor directs gases away from the workspace, ensuring a safer air quality for your technicians.

American-Made Industrial Durability

Proudly made in the USA, the Herkules AFC2 is built for long-term reliability in demanding environments. Its 100% pneumatic operation utilizes standard shop air (90–120 psi), eliminating the need for electrical power and reducing maintenance requirements. With heavy-duty steel construction and a virtually maintenance-free air-bag system, the AFC2 is a dependable investment for any facility focused on lean operations and environmental responsibility.
