Ingersoll Rand 3A1SA Industrial-Duty Chipping Hammer is designed for demanding demolition, scaling, and material-removal applications where increased impact energy is required. Featuring a 3" stroke, 1,725 blows per minute, and a 0.58" hex shank, this A-Series pneumatic hammer delivers powerful, controlled impacts for breaking concrete, removing weld slag, scaling metal surfaces, and performing heavy industrial maintenance. Its industrial-duty construction is suited for continuous operation in fabrication shops, foundries, construction sites, and maintenance facilities.
The 3A1SA incorporates a swan-neck handle with an outside trigger for comfortable handling and improved operator control during prolonged use. A lock-spring retainer securely holds compatible 0.58" hex shank oval-collar accessories, while the longer stroke provides greater impact energy than shorter-stroke models for more demanding chipping applications. The replaceable piston helps simplify maintenance and supports long-term serviceability.
