Reliable power
The VDH Hammers – 10 to 18 tons – have been developed based on decades of practical experience. Their simple but efficient design has been further refined over the years, resulting in high reliability and a long service life. These hammers are designed to perform heavy work under demanding conditions.
Double accelerated cylinders
An important feature of these hammers is the use of two accelerated cylinders. Instead of a free fall, the drop weight is actively pushed down, transferring significantly more energy to the pile or tube. This results in more impact force, higher efficiency and better quality of work.
Flexible frames and versions
The VDH Hammers are available in various frame lengths, with the 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18 ton frames serving as a base. In addition, there are versions with a drop height of 1200 mm for concrete and 1500 mm for steel. Thanks to these variation options, the hammers can be optimally tailored to the specific requirements of each project.

Durability and maintenance
The VDH Hammers – 10 to 18 tons – have a long service life and require little maintenance. Any repairs can easily be carried out in the field, minimizing downtime and keeping costs down. This makes the hammers particularly attractive to contractors who need robust and efficient solutions.
