Sealey’s Generation or G3 series of air tools represents some of the best design innovations in air tools of recent date. The tools feature contoured, soft-grip
handles and housings which help reduce the effects of vibration and chill – major contributors to circulatory and nerve problems such as white finger. The tools
also include exhaust systems designed to reduce noise levels by baffling the noise or directing it away from the operator’s environment. Most of the tools include
integral and adjustable air control valves for precise control of output. The air wrenches are, pound for pound, amongst the most powerful machines we have seen
in the market and the materials and manufacturing techniques used in the production of all the G3 series will ensure long and reliable service.

Risk of hand Arm Vibration Injury
Medium Stroke Air Hammer Model No. GSA12 when operated in accordance with these instructions and tested in accordance with BS EN 28662-1:1993,
iSO 8662-1:1988 and BS EN 28662-2:1995 results in the following vibration emission declared in accordance with BS EN 12096:1996.
measured vibration emission value:
11.7m/s²
Uncertainty:
4.68m/s²
These values are suitable for comparison with emission levels of other tools that have been subject to the same test.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is inadequately managed.
This is a ‘
NO LOAD’
vibration figure.
A competent person should carry out a risk assessment following HSE guidelines.
Measurement results can be highly variable, depending on many factors, including the operator's technique, the condition of the work equipment, the material
being processed and the measurement method.
Recommended measures to reduce risk of hand-arm vibration syndrome:
We recommend appropriate safety equipment is utilised and regular breaks for the operator are employed to reduce any residual risk of fatigue or repetitive
strain injury.
