It is possible to independently carry out repairs in the house today without the help of specialists. The tool on the market allows you to safely and effortlessly perform even complex installation operations. This is confirmed by the characteristics of the electric jackhammer, thanks to which many even redevelop. It remains only to decide on a suitable model.
Model "ZUBR ZM-50-2000 VK"
Domestic medium-level instrument worth 28-30 thousand rubles. The model has a moderate power of 2000 watts with an impact force of up to 50 J and the ability to maintain an intense pace of work. For ease of use, the developers have provided an anti-vibration system, an ergonomic cartridge of the HEX system, protection against accidental start-up and a balanced center of gravity in the hammer design. With regard to structural features, the Zubr electric hammer of this modification received a motor brush disconnect system, a magnesium alloy housing and an effective heat removal mechanism. But a mass of 20 kg still requires a certain physical preparation or support from the partner from the contractor.
Model Interskol M-32 / 2000M
A device of the same class and price category, which can be used on a professional level for the dismantling of brick and concrete substrates, as well as for loosening frozen and hard soils. The performance of the Interskol electric jackhammer is ensured by a reliable engine with automation elements. There is no possibility to adjust the speed, but there is a signal LED indication, which promptly indicates the need for brush updates. The power of the unit is the same 2000 W with an impact force of 32 J. A wide range of models is also noteworthy. The basic set includes a case for transporting the tool, a side support handle, a lance and a chisel with a set of hex wrenches for adjustment operations.
Model Makita HM 1213 C
The Japanese manufacturer is famous for its high-quality tools, both domestic and professional. This model can be attributed to the universal segment due to the combination of high ergonomics and performance. Although the nominal power rating of the HM 1213 C jackhammer is only 1,510 watts, the actual recoil force exceeds the potential of many budget models by 2,000 watts or more. Nevertheless, the branded Makita engine with a speed of 950-1900 bpm does its job in full.
What else can this unit boast of? Designers added versatility to him through a special adjusting wheel in the case. With it, the operator can set the bit in different positions at intervals of up to 30 degrees. Returning to the focus of the application, it is worth emphasizing that the weight of the Makita electric hammer in this version is only 10 kg, that is, even a beginner can handle its design. But within the domestic spectrum of installation operations. For ease of maintenance, body care accessories, a suitcase and a 5-meter cord for connecting to the network are also offered. By the way, the model is provided with a system for automatic detection of faults in the electrical stuffing with cable, so in case of malfunctions you do not have to look for a reason for a long time if it is connected with the wiring.
Model Bosch GSH 7 VC
The German manufacturer directly competes with Makita, producing products of similar quality and functional content in the construction market. And according to many characteristics, the GSH 7 VC corresponds to the Japanese unit described above - for example, the model power is 1,500 W and the weight is 8.5 kg. What is the difference between the Bosch jackhammer and its competitors of the same level? Mostly ergonomic qualities and maneuverability. The operator has at his disposal a tool with wide adjustment options, a convenient sds-max nozzle change mechanism and a universal peak-shaped Rtec Speed chisel, which allows you to perform a variety of tasks both on the construction site and indoors.
Model Wacker Neuson BH 65
If you need a diverse assistant exclusively for professional purposes with the appropriate power, then you should turn to gasoline units. It is this category that the BH 65 model from another German manufacturer, Wacker Neuson, represents. To begin with, it is worth emphasizing the advantages of the power plant - it is represented by the WM 80 engine at 2.3 liters. with. provided with an effective air cooling system. According to the manufacturer, the unit consumes about 1 liter of gasoline per hour. From the point of view of economy, the operation of this tool is much more profitable than intensive work with electric jackhammers of similar power. At the same time, the impact force of BH 65, as indicated in the title, is 65 J, which will confidently destroy strong walls made of concrete and brick.
Of course, such characteristics could not do without disadvantages. Tool weaknesses are expressed in the absence of the ability to adjust the number of revolutions and a large mass of about 25 kg That is, specialists from Wacker Neuson will be able to work with the hammer mainly by solving tasks of the appropriate level.
Conclusion
A jackhammer is a rather specific tool, the functions of which are gradually being taken over by more familiar equipment like perforators. Optimization of the power base, coupled with an improvement in the operational properties of the nozzles, allows the small-caliber power tool to perform dismantling operations. Nevertheless, a jackhammer is also developing, offering a new level of capabilities. Improving the convenience of physical handling with the integration of high-tech control systems facilitates complex work on the destruction of structures and soil development. As a result, performance remains at a level unattainable for the same punchers, and ergonomics are becoming more attractive for the average user. The only thing that cuts off this class of power tools from the audience of home craftsmen is the high cost, which exceeds 25-30 thousand rubles. depending on the model.
