Nazel Hammer Rebuild CD
Nazel 3B Hammer being rebuilt
Line Boring Rod End (sample picture)
I have rebuilt 5 of these hammers now - and the current information I have includes part numbers and companies for rings, gaskets, hardware, oilers, motors, etc........and the CD has very detailed pictures of the rebuilds including how to make your own new split bushings for the main bushings and rod bushing, as well as the upper rod bushing.
This is a works in progress - but if you're rebuilding one of these hammers I'll sell what I have so far on a CD of text & Pdf files along with all the Jpg pictures of machining & rebuild steps & ideas. This can save you a lot of time!
