Horizontal crushers are a prominent form of gripping weapon. They are primarily designed to grip both sides of other robots, with the intention of trapping them and allowing the wielder to push and drag them at will as well as crushing and piercing through their sides. The Thermidor machines all utilised this weapon, but they were used more prominently and successfully by Series 7 Semi-Finalist Tough as Nails and double UK Annihilator champion Kan-Opener.

  • Horizontal crushers are a prominent form of gripping weapon. They are primarily designed to grip both sides of other robots, with the intention of trapping them and allowing the wielder to push and drag them at will as well as crushing and piercing through their sides. The first robot to be seen using horizontal crushers in any form was House Robot Dead Metal, whilst Milly-Ann Bug used static horizontal crushers in Robot Wars: The Second Wars. The weapon first appeared as a moving, offensive weapon with the debuts of Thermador and Scarab, the latter being the first to use them to pierce as opposed to simply control an opponent. The Thermidor machines all utilised this weapon, but they were used more prominently and successfully by Series 7 Semi-Finalist Tough as Nails and double UK Annihilator champion Kan-Opener.
