Paving Breakers & Jackhammers

Handheld paving breakers deliver the optimal balance of mobility and impact power for localized demolition, post driving, and various other tasks. We carry a variety of weight classes that are ideal for contractors, utility crews, and rental fleets needing robust breaking performance without the bulk of larger machines— perfect for sidewalks, curbs, small slabs, asphalt patches, and trenching near structures. If you are unsure of the right tool for breaking concrete, click here.

These Jackhammers are tuned for high-impact energy and blow frequency in a compact package, with hardened chisels and moil point bits that penetrate asphalt and concrete efficiently. Options include vibration-dampening handles, ergonomic grips, and mufflers to reduce operator fatigue during extended use. Key technical considerations include blows per minute (BPM), air consumption (CFM) and required compressor size, and shank size.

Match tool weight to job intensity: lighter 30–40 lb units for smaller or tight-space work, heavier 60–80 lb breakers for thicker concrete or larger jobs. Browse by impact class, tool steel compatibility, and recommended compressor specs to find the right handheld paving breaker for your project.
