Soil Compaction Hammers are sliding drop proctor hammers used for compaction of moisture-density relationship (Proctor) soil samples. Only Gilson Hammers feature 100% 303 stainless steel construction for maximum corrosion resistance and long service life. Hammer masses are enclosed in guide sleeves with vent holes that ensure unrestricted free-fall. The heavy knurled hexagonal cap is welded to the tube, and allows a secure, comfortable grip during use and prevents rolling during storage. Both hammer models have a 2in (51mm) flat, circular face. Inquire for old-style U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Compaction Hammers.
