I picked up an air hammer from Horrible Freight yesterday and the power is dismal. I tried to use it to bust some tie rod ends and it wouldn't budge them. The impact force feels about the same as tak

It's defective. I bought a similar ten-buck unit from Menards some time back, and I have cut concrete slabs with it. Not what it's designed for, but it works. Silly question, but are you sure you ar

Are you sure it's getting enough air and the throttle is open wide ? You have to put force against the gun to force the tool back into it for each stroke. If you're doing that and it still feels tha

Jon, Several have mentioned the air from your compressor. I want to address that also but a little more in depth. 1. Do you have a regulator on your compressor? If so, do you have it cranked all the

Yep. I braced my whole body weight against it. Is it possible the shaft is too short on the ball joint tool and the hammer can't get a full stroke? The other thing I noticed is if I let my push get j

Slightly off the topic, and not answering the question you asked, I have a suggestion for a neat alternative. Aircraft Tool Supply (and others, I'm sure) sell rivet guns that hammer a rivet against a

I've got a 8x10 concrete slab that I need to break up. It has no rebar and it's about 2 inches thick. I was thinking about buying a Air Hammer. They seem pretty inexpensive plus they usually come wit

An 8# sledge hammer is what you are looking for. 1/2 hour of moderate excercise to break it up and about 45 minutes to pick up the pieces. Go for it, Roger

The correct tool for this job is some other guy with a sledge hammer;) If you mean the small air hammer guns that are one-hand held, it won't do the job.

Buy the air chisel, and use it for the automotive stuff. To break up the slab go to your area tool rental place and rent an Electric Jackhammer. Should run 25 or 30.00 for the day. It will take fore

It seems the general attitude is to use a 8 pound sledge hammer. The air hammer dosen't have enough gusto to get the job done. I imagine that renting a jackhammer would work great, although a bit of
