Review on πŸ”§ Optimized for SEO: Chicago Pneumatic Super Hammer CP714K by Troy Rotermund

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Easy to handle and hits hard, but not hard like a Subaru

This air hammer feels good in the hand, is well balanced and packs a decent punch for most applications. I only recently put it aside in favor of the larger and more ubiquitous snap-on PH3050. CP's hammer couldn't do what my colleague's tool could: knock the Subaru wheel hub off the steering knuckle. This is a great air hammer when you want to get it right and have total control of the drum's rhythm. The snap-on device is easy to use, but the very tight trigger makes it difficult to master. Other hammers are more powerful, but if you don't need that level of destruction, this is a great, well-made pneumatic hammer for cutting, punching, or convincing the occasional stubborn fastener.

Pros
  • Versatile - suitable for a variety of applications
Cons
  • High price
