Extend the Life of Your Hydraulic Hammer with Proactive Maintenance

Extend the Life of Your Hydraulic Hammer with Proactive Maintenance

Your hydraulic hammer is built to perform under pressure, but even the toughest tool needs regular care to stay at its best. Proactive maintenance is one of the smartest ways to protect your investment, reduce unexpected downtime, and increase your ROI over time.

Daily maintenance should include checking the condition of the tool bit and applying the correct lubricant. Skipping this step can lead to galling, misalignment, and costly internal wear. Weekly, it’s worth inspecting tool retainers, pins, and bushings for signs of stress or movement. These components take a beating and should never be ignored.

One of the most overlooked areas of hammer upkeep is the nitrogen gas chamber. An undercharged hammer won’t deliver full impact energy, reducing both efficiency and performance. Monthly checks of nitrogen pressure, internal seals, and the hydraulic flow system can catch small issues before they lead to breakdowns.

We offer tailored maintenance support, from supplying OEM and high-quality aftermarket parts to providing in-shop or on-site servicing.
