Review on πŸ’₯ High-Performance Craftsman Air Hammer: 2800 BPM by Louis Asok

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Powerful air hammer. Surprised at such an affordable price.

My old Ingersoll Rand air hammer stopped working and I was thinking of replacing it with one of the medium air hammers. I was surprised to see this from Craftsman at such an affordable price. It's on the high end of the low end but is affordable and well made. The first job I set myself with this hammer was to drill a hole in a boulder in the driveway. My yard is full of boulders and we keep finding them in new places, mostly with difficulty, by car, cultivator or shovel. One has started blurring in the driveway and is surprisingly hard to see at night. I kept walking around it trying to find a spot for the reflective pen, but apparently it's really there. I unrolled the air compressor, plugged it in and used the included nozzle and within minutes I had a nice three inch deep hole in the top to stick my spike in. It gives me some bounce and liveliness, but I'm a smaller 5'7" female. Minute on the high end and it should be the middle movement. Definitely durable for home use and as many air hammers as I've ever had on a farm It's surprisingly powerful, although for its class it's actually light, heavy if you need to hold it long enough It only weighs 3.6 pounds It's fairly easy to use, although I have some issues with the delicacy of the Spring had. This is indeed one of the biggest pitfalls. -able but certainly disappointed the first time or two. At first I used the chisel that came with our boulder but when I replaced the tips with longer ones it was difficult to work with them.Probably pick a favorite that you will keep most of the time.They also have quick release skewers from Ingersoll Rand or another brand.Craftsman is fairly compatible with de n most major brands in the US. His hands are good too. They are designed to feel more comfortable, reduce friction and hopefully prevent blisters. This doesn't seem to have a silencer, but for what it's designed for, it's better to just have great ear defenders. Other than the lack of built in quick release and a tricky spring, overall a solid hammer at an affordable price. A light commercial hammer or any homemade hammer I'll ever need. hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=241955516116&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17949651227176850347&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9008971&pla.hvtar89=pla.8hvtar89-1
