The Chicago Pneumatic CP 0012 is a 2-cylinder chipping hammer built for light work: a 12 lb in-line tool with a 2 in. stroke running 2,600 BPM on just 20 CFM of air. It is the easy-handling option in the Chicago Pneumatic chipping hammer family for alteration work, hole making, trimming and weld scaling, with a muffler assembly included as standard equipment.
Light weight and medium hitting power keep it controllable on precise jobs, and the teasing throttle with air-cushioned piston lets the operator feather single blows. Pair it with a 2 in. chisel or narrow blade in .580 hex or .680 round shank. When the work is thinner than concrete rust, paint, light scale needle scalers take over; heavier demolition belongs to the bigger tools in our chipping hammer selection.

CP 0012 FAQ
What size compressor runs the CP 0012?
It draws just 20 CFM at 90 PSI, so small contractor compressors handle it easily, and a 185 CFM towable supports several tools on the same circuit.
What chisels fit it?
Steel with a .580 in. hex or .680 in. round shank, retained by ball, oval-collar or bolt-on retainers — the matching chipping hammer chisels are stocked in Denver.
CP 0012 or CP 4130?
The 0012’s 2 in. stroke at 2,600 BPM in a 12 lb body favors light, fast, precise work; step up to the CP 4130 when sustained concrete chipping calls for a 3 in. stroke and an 18 lb tool.
