Description
Tool designed for use with smooth earthing rods, whether self-extending or not, up to a diameter of 19mm. The bouterolle weighs 0.280 kg. The impact pin is an essential tool for ensuring correct and secure installation of earthing rods in earthing and lightning protection systems.
Main functions:
Rod Protection: Coupled with a suitable coupling sleeve, the impact pin is placed on the top of the earthing rod when it is driven into the ground. It serves to protect the end of the rod from deformation or damage that may occur when striking with a hammer or other striking tool.
– Uniform Distribution of Force: By striking the bolt rather than directly on the rod, the striking force is distributed uniformly over the entire head of the rod. This helps prevent deformation or splitting of the post.
– Facilitates Installation: The use of a dowel makes the installation of earthing rods easier and more efficient, particularly in hard or compacted soils where considerable force is required to drive the rod.
– Operator Safety: It provides a more secure and stable striking surface, reducing the risk of injury to the operator when installing the rod.
