Product Description
Milwaukee Ground Rod Driver 3/4 in. Hex Shank
Model Number: 48-62-3070
The Milwaukee 48-62-3070 is a Ground Rod Driver with a 3/4 in. hex shank for use with professional electric chipping hammers and demolition tools equipped with a 3/4 in. hex tool holder — a specialty chisel-type attachment that converts a standard chipping hammer into a powered ground rod driving tool for driving 5/8 in. and 3/4 in. copper-clad steel ground rods into the soil for electrical grounding system installation. Driving ground rods by hand with a sledgehammer is physically demanding, slow in hard soil conditions, and increasingly impractical as the rod penetrates deeper — the Milwaukee ground rod driver converts the chipping hammer's high-frequency impact energy into efficient, controlled rod driving that dramatically reduces the time and physical effort required to drive ground rods to the required depth in electrical grounding system installation.
Milwaukee forges the ground rod driver from high-grade steel with heat-treated working areas for the repeated impact loading of sustained ground rod driving in all soil conditions from soft fill to dense clay and compacted soils. The socket geometry at the working end engages the ground rod top for centered impact force delivery that drives the rod straight without the deflection and bending that off-center sledgehammer blows cause in longer rods. The 3/4 in. hex shank provides positive anti-rotation locking in the chipping hammer's tool holder. This tool is particularly valuable for electrical contractors and telecommunications crews who install ground systems regularly throughout their project work.
