XtremepowerUS Tamper Shank and Plate for Jack Hammer Bit Electric Demolition Concrete Breaker (Tamper Shank and Plate)

Got to say that I was very uncertain given the lack of strong reviews for this product prior to buying it. Suffice it to say that it is not cheap either. Now that that's out of the way, this thing is high quality, heavy, and works with my 2200 W jackhammer to a t. I used it to tamp the base Rock and soil behind a retaining wall that I am building and it delivered with a vengeance. I barely had to do any of the work alone other than picking the jackhammer up and moving it. Once there the weight of the shank, tamper, and jackhammer was more than sufficient to tamp the dirt. If I had one wish it would be larger, of course. But then my weak body probably wouldn't be able to lift it anymore.Go ahead and get it. It's what you think it is, it works just as it looks like it will. One tip is that once you put the shank in the tamper you are not getting that bad boy off. Well, maybe you have if you have access to high power hydraulics or something, Pat Superman's grip alone would not be sufficient, point being get it aligned right the first time. Once you thump, it's permanent.

I much prefer this blade to the clay spade that I also bought. I had less problems with clay sticking to this, and overall found it more useful than the clay spade. It is heavy duty, and a good value for the price.

Good tool

Everyone who complained that it didn't fit their jackhammer must have overlooked that it was made for the ExtremepowerUS electric hammer. I had bought that jackhammer here on Amazon and this tamper foot fit perfectly. My only complaint, more of a want really, is that it had a bigger foot. In the grand scheme of packing dirt, it takes forever to pack the pit left behind after replacing a rusted out yard hydrant. It may not be the best, but I'm still keeping it.

Works very well. Great for deep compaction before pouring concrete to repair 10 square foot hole in a slab on grade.

These bits are not in any way interchangeable.1. They are shaped differently.2. The XtremepowerUS Tamper Shank hexagonal part is much thicker than the bit that fits the Bosch jackhammer. It is so thick that it will not even fit into the Bosch at all.3. Even if the XtremepowerUS Tamper Shank could fit into the Bosch, it would not be able to lock into place due to the differences in location of the groove.I do want to state that the XtremepowerUS Tamper Shank feels like it is very high quality. I'm sure it is very tough.However, I am irritated that it was not specified that this bit would not fit Bosch jackhammers. If 1&1/8 inch jackhammer bits were standardized, this problem would have never happened. Buyer beware!

My soil is heavy clay. Exists in two states, concrete and snot. Using my destruction hammer this makes short work of digging out all kinds of stuff. Forged construction is very sturdy.

Should be sold with a grinder. Does not fit Hercules 1 1/8” jack hammer. Had to grind it down to fit using a 4” grinder and abrasive disk
