The 0.401 round shank is the standard for this type of tool.
In order to get more power, the piston must move farther down the rod.
A built-in muffler reduces the sound of exhaust.
For quick accessory changes, there is an easy-to-use retainer.
From the Manufacturer: This tool is great for heavy-duty jobs.
There is more force per blow because the CP7150K Heavy Duty Air Hammer has a longer piston stroke. Each piece of the kit comes with its own heavy duty case that can be used to carry it. A built-in muffler reduces the sound of the exhaust. All Impact parts are heat-treated to make them more durable, and they have an ergonomic handle for more comfort for the operator. Ideal for removing mufflers and pipes, body shop work, shock work, scraping rust, and light front-end work, this tool is great for these things. 2100 blows in a minut.

When I was trying to remove a Nissan Titan (4×4) front hub bearing, the 5 lb sliding hammer I rented from the local auto parts store didn’t work. So I tried my Craftsman air hammer on it, and the bearing had a good laugh out of that as well. I bought the CP7150 because it was the closest thing to the “Big Nasty” that didn’t cost $200 more. The first thing I did when “Big Nasty” arrived was put on a 5′ whip and Milton high flow quick connect. Now, I’m not saying this is as good as “Big Nasty,” but I did. I also have all of Milton’s high flow pipes on my compressor.
I also bought the Astro Pneumatic Hub Puller because this bearing didn’t seem to want to come off. If you were to change your air hammer this morning, you would also switch your Craftsman to the Milton high flow. This is because it was around before I learned about the high flows and how much they help. I went to work on the truck to see how well the Astro Pneumatic hub puller would work, but the CP7150 had other ideas. It broke the bearing free in just a few seconds and it was spinning out. With a slight tilt, it was also pulling the bearing out of the knuckle and the bearing hit the ground, so the bearing fell to the ground. Even though I have a high-flow pump, my Craftsman is still not as powerful as the CP7150.
Taiwan makes a lot of tools now, so don’t let that scare you. Mac wrench sets, Blue Point tools, and my next lathe will all have been made there. One of the best things you can do is make sure that all of your connections have high flow connectors. You’ll be amazed at how much better things will run when they do.
You should get the Grey Pneumatic CH1001 if you want to put a quick change retainer on it. Quick change retainers: I’ve tried a lot of them. Grey Pneumatics are the only one that hasn’t failed me. They’re pricey, but worth the money!
