Choosing the Correct Pneumatic Hammer

Make sure to choose the correct size of pneumatic hammer for the work to be done. A too small hammer will make the work take longer. A too big hammer requires frequent repositioning and is tiring for the operator.

It should take about 5-10 seconds to remove a normal sized piece of broken material from a workpiece. If it takes less than 5 seconds, choose a smaller pneumatic hammer. If it takes more than 10 seconds, choose a larger pneumatic hammer.
