Product Overview

Our compaction hammers are made from high quality materials, 100% 303 stainless steel for maximum corrosion resistance and long life. The compaction hammer masses are enclosed in guide sleeves with four vent holes in each end to allow for release of built up air pressure. The heavy knurled hexagonal cap is welded to the tube to prevent rolling during storage. All compaction hammer models have 2in (51mm) flat circular face for consistent compaction results. These design features combined gives you a tool that is reliable and easy to use in any testing environment.

Operational Aspects

The operational aspects of soil compaction hammers, including the compaction hammer 10 lb, are crucial for effective soil compaction. These manual compaction hammers, also known as sliding drop proctor hammers, are designed to provide a secure grip and comfortable use during the compaction process. The knurled hexagonal cap, welded to the tube, welded to the tube, prevents the rolling of the hammer during storage.

The guide sleeve, which encases the compaction hammer head, has four holes at each end, to allow release built-up air pressure. The use of four vent holes at the bottom of the hammer is to prevent damage to the hammer. The compaction hammer is designed to fit into the hammer.

The compactor hammer is designed to be used in any environment. Whether you need to work on sand, silt, clay or gravel this hammer will work. It’s essential for building foundations soil compaction for retaining walls, embankments and roadways.
