Allied Construction Products, LLC has announced the addition of the Model G 88 G-Series hydraulic impact hammer to their full product line. As attachment use increases, Allied continues to lead the industry with product improvements. Allied's newest addition, the Rammer Model G 88 G-Series hammer, weighs 5,225 pounds and is ideal for use on 60,000-pound to 88,000-pound excavators.

The hammer reflects simpler operation, easier maintenance, increased reliability, and extended longevity. Designed for heavy quarrying and construction applications, the G 88 features adjustable impact energy to match working conditions for optimal performance and it is available exclusively as a silenced CITY model for quiet operation.

The G 88 G-Series offers many competitive advantages such as fixed blow energy, which guarantees that all blows are at full power; front-end, including simpler tool retainers and “interference-fit” bushings, is protected by housing that eliminates wear of the most costly components of the hammer assembly; and pro Control allows the operator to control impact energy of the hammer, to deliver the appropriate impact power for increased production.

The Idle Selector allows an operator to change the settings to accommodate specific breaking conditions, and the CITY version (standard) contains the noise created by the hammer inside of the box and allows contractors to work where noise is a problem. An improved heavy-duty lower boot insures that the tool holder does not wear out when breaking abrasive material and is easier to replace. New lower tool bushing is a longer design to add additional support to the tool to resist breakage, and newly designed tie bolts (thinner shaft diameter allowing increased torque) now have extended longevity. In addition, the hammer body can be rotated 180 degrees in the housing to easily match the carrier with the hammer for either right-hand or left-hand pressure supply.

One or more of over 2,500 customized hydraulic kits from Allied provide components for mounting the Model G 88 G-Series on excavators. The Model G 88 requires 42.3 gpm to 60.8 gpm at 2,030 psi to 2,180 psi and it breaks at a rate of 300 to 480 blows-per-minute. Demolition of concrete structures, building foundations, trench rock, and oversize rock are many of the applications for the Model G 88 G-Series hydraulic hammer.
