Geoff Keyes Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 What is it that confuses you? I have built a mechanical hammer, though not a tire hammer, so perhaps I can answer some of your questions. I just need some more detail.

781 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Not sure about ARM but isn't it a 50# hammer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FieryFurnace Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 The ram weight, including the steel tube, is 50 pounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodge Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Dear all , I am first time in this forum I just making Clay Spencer Tire Hammer. rt now almost completed But still I am confusing the weight of Hammer arm ? ..plz help me ... Did you buy plans from Mr. Spencer or otherwise? After reading the other posts, I do wonder if you, in deed meant RAM instead of ARM (Typo??) I built mine w/o plans as I didn't know they were available back then, but I only made a 35 pound ram or tup as some call it. Still, compared to the weight of that, the "arms" that connect to the tup/ram really are insignificant. The rated or measured weight of a power hammer in my understanding is the ram/tup or the part that actually does the hammering. Others, please correct me if this is wrong. I know that all the moving parts do add to that weight but not certain they are considered in the rated weight of the machine. My slug i used for the ram/tup weighs 35#. Hope this helps.
