Solution Summary: Vibration Dampening Jackhammer
A vibration dampening jackhammer is a tool that reduces vibration during drilling and demolition tasks.
Risks Addressed:
Hand-arm vibration can cause musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) such as muscle strains; tendonitis, which is inflammation of elbow and wrist tendons; or carpal tunnel syndrome, which is compression of a wrist nerve, resulting in finger numbness and loss of hand strength. The vibration dampening jackhammer can help reduce hand-arm vibration through a combination of counterbalances, shock absorbers, and/or decoupling internal parts from the outside casting.
How Risks are Reduced:
A vibration dampening jackhammer minimizes hand-arm vibration because it uses various mechanisms to reduce the vibration transferred to the user.
