THE PERFECT SOLUTION for your Machinery requirements

Air hammers, also called pneumatic hammers or power hammers use compressed air to help aid craftsman to hammer, score and plenish (smooth) a workpiece that would take hours, if not days, to produce manually.

Air hammers use air compression to work. Air compressors are large tanks of air with motors attached. Hand-held models of air hammers use tubes connected to an air tank. The motor fills the tank with air that is pressurized. This pressurized air travels through the tube to the air hammer, thus making the air hammer operational. Each air hammer varies on the size of compressor it needs to perform. Smaller air hammers need smaller compressors while larger models need larger compressors. The difference in size of air hammers to air compressors vary according to the cubic feet per minute, or CFM and the pounds per square inch, or PSI required for the specific air hammer model being used.

Air hammers are very powerful tools which can cause great injury if safety precautions are not taken. When using the air hammer tool, great care needs to be taken to wear the proper safety equipment such as safety glasses and ear plugs. Craftsman should always make sure the air hammer is unplugged when changing the various tips, or bits. Finally, when working with an air hammer, a craftsman should always be aware of the positioning of the tool due to the extreme powerful nature that can cause the tool to jump when operated.
