Things to Consider When Buying a Post Driver
Application
Surface & subsurface conditions. The power post driver is fully capable of driving posts through hard packed clay, rocky soil, hard road base and even 4 inches of asphalt.
Performance
Unless you are driving light weight posts through soft sandy soil or mulch, don’t waste your time and money on a gas-powered post driver. The Power Post Driver has 80ft-lb of torque versus the 4 ft-lb of torque produced by most gas-powered drivers.
CFM/Air Compressor Needs
Where most pneumatic post drivers require large, expensive air compressors, the power post driver operates on only 38 CFM compressors – allowing for the use of small, portable air compressors.
Weight
Weighing in at 38lbs, the power post driver is one of the lightest pneumatic post drivers on the market – turning a multi person job into a one-person job.
Maintenance
As with any power tool, maintenance is essential. With the Power Post Driver, other than a periodic shot of WD-40, zero maintenance is required. Unlike other drivers, there are no seals, gaskets, or O-rings to fail.
Design
Due to its unique design, the Power Post Driver operates without any friction, virtually reducing any wear on all internal components. In fact, due to the compressed air and no friction, the Power Post Driver becomes cooler as you use it.
