 to drive timber, H-pile, steel pipe and prestressed concrete piles.  
 An optional sheet pile adapter makes them ideal for driving sheet  
 piles in soil conditions where a vibratory hammer cannot achieve  
 the required depth. Pile Master hammers are also environmentally  
 friendly, using a biodegradable antifreeze as the only lubricant. 
 There are currently four Pile Master models available. The  
 24-900 offers an adjustable stroke from six to 24 inches and 450 to  
 1,800 foot-pounds of energy; the 24-2500 offers 1,250 to 5,000 footpounds  
 of energy, the 36-3000 offers six to 36 inches and 1,500 to  
 9,000 foot-pounds of energy; and the 36-5000 offers 2,500 to 15,000  
 foot-pounds of energy. The 24-900 and 24-2500 models require a  
 185-CFM air  compressor, while  the 36-3000 and  36-5000 models  
 require only 375 CFM.
