Identifying the Manufacturer of this Hammer

Question:

If you happen to know the manufacturer of this hammer, I would greatly appreciate it. I may need to purchase parts or perform a rebuild in the future. It appears that two additional tabs were welded onto the hammer for mounting on another machine. Your assistance in identifying the maker would be invaluable. Thank you in advance.

This NPK appears to be old and outdated. You may want to consider upgrading to a newer model, based on its appearance and storage condition. It likely requires a thorough overhaul.

Do you have a Montabert hammer and are looking for its identification numbers? Let's find the serial numbers on your Montabert equipment.

The product has received a complete overhaul, however, I am unable to get in touch with the seller. Where can I locate any identifying numbers for this item?

In order to locate the serial numbers, it may be necessary to remove the side plates. Typically, the numbers can be found next to the hydraulic ports, but in this particular case, the ports appear to be located on both sides.

In a previous post about breakers, someone posed the question: why store the hammer vertically? According to my boss, storing it upright prevents the weight of the piston from causing seal damage over time. So, there you have it! Remember to keep your breaker vertical to maintain seals and maximize longevity. Cheers! 🍻
