This USA-built machine delivers 3,200 precise beats per minute, making quick work of smoothing welds, removing imperfections, and creating beautiful compound curves in both steel and aluminum. When you're working on automotive restoration, custom fabrication, or any metal shaping project that demands professional results, the PH-36A stands ready to transform your workflow. This isn't just another tool. It is your solution to hours of tedious hand finishing work. What makes the PH-36A special? Everything about this machine is adjustable. The throat depth gives you an impressive 36 inches of working space, meaning you can tackle larger panels and complex shapes that other hammers simply can't reach.

Built in the USA with premium components, the PH-36A features a completely rebuildable air motor that lets you customize the impact characteristics for your specific application. The foot pedal operation keeps your hands free to guide your workpiece, while the adjustable top and bottom supports allow for offset planishing. Giving you flexibility that rigid machines can't match. It arrives fully assembled and ready to work, complete with seven different radius dies to get you started on virtually any project. This is the kind of tool that professional fabricators rely on daily, and now you can bring that same capability to your shop.
