A sledgehammer, often referred to as an electric hammer or pick, is a powerful tool used for breaking concrete and other hard materials. Despite its name, it is versatile and can adapt to various tasks—such as driving pipes, digging, and paint removal—by changing the tip tool.
Its ability to demolish hard concrete structures, which electric drills struggle with, makes it a vital tool on construction sites.
Sledgehammers excel in breaking concrete, making them essential for road construction, electrical work, and demolition tasks. They are also used for:
A sledgehammer consists of a main body and a blade, either a bull point or chisel, usually powered by electricity. It operates on the principle of applying a strong, downward force to break through concrete or stone, similar to manual chiseling. Some models feature a low-vibration mechanism to reduce operator fatigue and prevent vibration-related injuries.
Consider the following when choosing a sledgehammer:
The tool's shank, or shaft, varies by product. Hexagonal shafts offer a secure grip, preventing slippage, while SDS-MAX and SDS-Plus shafts, developed by Bosch, cater to different size requirements and applications. Ensure compatibility with the hammer's body before purchase.
Striking force ranges from 6 J to 70 J. Select a hammer that balances power with manageability to avoid undue fatigue, based on the task at hand.
Choose between power-operated and battery-powered models based on usage needs. Given the high power consumption of sledgehammers, power-operated types are recommended for prolonged use.
