Impact Rate (BPM – Blows Per Minute): Typically around 1400-1900 BPM. This indicates how many times the chisel strikes the material per minute. Voltage: Standard 220V-240V, 50Hz, suitable for the Kenyan power grid. Weight: Demolition breakers are heavy. For this power class, the weight can be around 10kg to 16kg. The weight contributes to the tool’s stability and helps drive the chisel into the material. Design: Expect a rugged, durable construction designed to withstand the harsh conditions of demolition work. It will have large, comfortable handles, usually with vibration-dampening features to reduce operator fatigue. Lubrication System: Demolition breakers often have an oil lubrication system (sometimes visible as a sight glass) that requires regular checking and refilling to ensure smooth operation and longevity.
