Greyhound Auto Retail supplies demolition hammers and electric breakers for concrete, paving, brickwork, tile removal and general demolition, including Einhell machines.

A demolition hammer differs from a hammer drill in that it only hammers, with no rotation, delivering all its energy into breaking rather than drilling. That is why a breaker goes through concrete and paving that a rotary hammer would struggle with.

Impact energy, measured in joules, is the figure to compare rather than motor wattage, since it tells you how hard each blow actually lands. Let the machine and its own weight do the work rather than leaning on it, use the right chisel or point for the material, and take regular breaks since vibration exposure adds up quickly. Ear defenders, goggles, gloves and a dust mask are all necessary with this kind of work.
