- can be nearly 8 inches shorter and up to 400 pounds lighter, depending on the attachment size, than traditional hammer-top plates
- improve the stability of the attachment’s carrier because of the favorable center of gravity
- come with a service inspection cover, providing easy access to components in the upper section of the attachment

Air Cleaning Blowers
Highland, New York-based Air Cleaning Blowers LLC says it has developed and patented a series of technologies, named Air Cleaning Blowers or ACBs, that enable a blower to clean the air without using a filter element that clogs and constantly needs replacing. ACBs:
- ventilate, pressurize and clean particles from dusty air without using any filter elements
- help reduce the costs and complications of providing ventilation in industrial settings
- are simpler to size and use than systems with ordinary air filters and air purifiers
- provide constant and predictable airflow, air pressure, air quality and energy consumption
- can be used in applications with airflows that range from 50 to 3,500 cubic feet per minute
- can serve as prefilters for specialized downstream filters
