Overview
This hydraulic post pounder hangs from the boom of a 4-7 ton excavator and drives posts, signs and pipe into the ground. It suits fencing contractors, farms and utility or landscape crews who set a lot of posts and want the boom to do the work. The excavator's reach lets you place posts along a line without moving the machine for every one.
What it does
- Drives posts up to 8 in. in diameter with a steel driving cup.
- Delivers 700 ft-lb of energy at 500-900 BPM.
- Recovers piston recoil in a nitrogen-charged cushion chamber.
- Handles fence posts, sign posts and pipe on farm, utility and landscape jobs.
What your machine needs
Your excavator should be in the 4-7 ton class and have a hydraulic circuit to run the pounder. The listing does not state the oil flow or coupler pattern, so check both with us before ordering.
Features
-
Posts up to 8 in.The steel driving cup takes posts up to 8 in. across, so the same pounder handles fence posts, sign posts and pipe.
-
700 ft-lb at 500-900 BPMRapid blows drive the post steadily instead of in a few big hits, which helps it go in straight.
-
Nitrogen cushion chamberA nitrogen-charged chamber takes up piston recoil on each upstroke and puts that energy into the next blow.
-
Reach from the cabWorking from the boom keeps your crew away from hand drivers and the strain that comes with them.

Post driver
We build a lot of pipe fence, sometimes in super rocky locations. This driver will drive pipe through almost solid rock. Have driven thousands of post with it. No issues, it’s a great addition to our fleet.

Fence Line Rhythm
Running this on our excavator has sped up boundary post work across rocky sections of the block. The hammer keeps a consistent beat, and the 8 inch cup has handled heavier timber posts without much messing around.

Unfortunately 2 days after I received my order, I was rear ended and had to spend time in the Hospital. Therefore , I have not had a chance to use my attachments yet. I have just been released and have a couple of weeks to recover. I will send a Review as soon as I am able
