Hibby Hammer Company is a start-up company that has developed a revolutionary hydraulic tool to improve safety, productivity and environment in mining and construction applications. These hammers are used to break rock, stone, concrete or other materials that need removal, demolition or reduction in size. In construction applications, the hammers are typically attached to other machinery, such as backhoe-loaders, Bobcat style machines or excavators. In the mining and quarrying applications, the hammers are attached to similar equipment and also used on a pedestal mounted boom with hydraulic power-pack. These mining, quarrying, and construction host machines are adapted to provide hydraulic supply to the hammer including an on-off or variable control device. The unique "Hibby" hammer provides many benefits to these industries.
