Quality Aftermarket Final Drives for Hitachi Excavators
Hitachi excavators are globally recognised for their ultra‑smooth, responsive Zaxis hydraulics, giving operators exceptional precision and control. Built with heavy‑duty Japanese engineering, Hitachi machines are known for outstanding reliability, fuel efficiency, and strong resale value across every industry.
The older Hitachi EX series came before the modern Zaxis (ZX) range, and many EX models are still working hard across New Zealand. Popular machines such as the EX60, EX100, EX120, EX200, and EX300 remain trusted on farms, forestry sites, and in small contracting fleets. These diggers are valued for being strong, simple, easy to service, and dependable in tough conditions.
Across New Zealand, Hitachi excavators are used for a wide range of earthmoving tasks. Larger machines support civil construction, roading, foundations, trenching, forestry work, quarry loading, and rock digging. Compact models are ideal for landscaping, residential projects, tight‑access work, farm drainage, culvert installation, and maintaining tracks.
Need a replacement final drive for your Hitachi?
No matter how often you use your Hitachi, and how well looked after it is, final drives eventually wear out. When that happens you don’t have to pay more than the excavator is worth to replace them.
At NZ Final Drives, we supply quality new aftermarket final drives for Hitachi excavators. Our drives are sourced from a carefully selected manufacturer, independently assessed by a New Zealand-qualified metallurgist, and backed by a two-year unlimited-hour warranty.
If you need a reliable replacement final drive, technical advice on fitment, or help identifying the right drive for your model, we are here to help keep your machine running smoothly.
Hitachi Excavator Models We Supply Final Drives For
We supply replacement final drives for mini Hitachi excavators.
The two major series in NZ are the ZX (newer/ current models) and EX series (older 1990s-2000s models).
We make it easier to choose the right Hitachi final drive by checking the key specifications before supply and explaining why the recommended option suits your machine.
Your drive is shipped in a plywood box with helpful installation details, including port configuration and thread sizes, so your installer can plan the job with confidence.
If an adaptor is needed, we can also suggest local suppliers who may be able to help.
