Ingersoll Rand W2A2 Heavy-Duty Chipping Hammer is engineered for demanding chipping, scaling, demolition, and surface-preparation applications that require greater impact energy than shorter-stroke models. Featuring a 2" stroke, 2,300 blows per minute, and a 0.68" round shank, this W-Series pneumatic hammer delivers powerful, controlled impacts for removing concrete, weld slag, rust, mill scale, and other stubborn materials. Its heavy-duty construction is designed to withstand continuous use in fabrication shops, foundries, construction sites, and industrial maintenance environments.
The W2A2 incorporates a swan-neck handle with an outside trigger for comfortable handling and precise operator control during extended operation. A lock-spring retainer securely holds compatible 0.68" round shank oval-collar accessories, while the longer 2" stroke provides increased impact energy compared to shorter-stroke models. The replaceable piston helps simplify maintenance and supports dependable long-term serviceability, making the hammer well suited for repetitive material-removal applications.
