AIR COMPRESSORS
12/24V Compressors
WESTAIR 12 and 24 volt compressors have been designed and constructed with quality in mind. Our 12 and 24 volt machines come with a full 12 month warranty and we have all the required spare parts in stock. Unlike a lot of other 12 and 24 volt compressors all our machines are designed for long life and are fully repairable and not just throwaways.
These are mainly used in the industrial and mining fields and have proven themselves in some of the toughest conditions imaginable. Our stated air delivery figures are measured against AS4637-2006 which states air pressures are measured at 100 psi (689 kpa) and not zero as most competing products are. Volume is the key to separate these units from the pack. These units are designed to pump to 120 psi (827 kpa).

THUNDERBIRD ELECTRIC FENCING
CHRISTIE PETROL POST DRIVER
The Christie Post Driver was developed by Christie Engineering to suit the harsh Australian environment. Weighing 13.5 kg for the CHPD52 and 15.5 kg for the CHPD78, both models are lightweight and portable yet still able to drive posts as swiftly as much larger and heavier hydraulic and pneumatic tools.
The high impact hammer action of the 1720BPM will drive steel fence pickets into the hardest ground in a mater of seconds and the portable design allows operators to move along the fence lines with ease. The driver uses efficient Honda GX35 4 - stroke motor to give the best service life possible.
Major Features:
Commercial grate tool, 3 year warranty, light weight and portable, up to 500 posts per litre, spring dampened handles, reliable honda motor, suits standard star and Y posts.
MARCHANT ENGINEERING POST DRIVER
Pneumatic Post Driver
The Pneumatic Post Driver air tool has been proven on the harsh terrain of Central Australia building long strained fencing in record time. It will drive star posts through bitumen, shale and black soil surfaces as well as ironstone and sandstone.
Used for driving in steel fencing posts, trellising posts, plastic posts, timber stakes, 2", 3", 4" and 5" round or square pine posts into pre-augured or water speared holes or VERY SOFT ground.
The Post Driver weighs 18kg and is easily dismantled for servicing, oiling and replacing the striking dolly.
The POST DRIVER comes standard with:
- Standard 54mm guide
- Striking dolly in the driver plus spare shrinking dolly
- Quick release coupling & hose clamp to connect hose to driver
- 12mm brass tail & hose clamp to connect hose to compressor
- Spare grub screws, lock nuts & allen key
- 12 MONTHS WARRANTY
The POST DRIVER also has optional attachments:
- Various size striking dolly's
- Adapter dolly - tool holder
- Chisel, pick and bead breaker
- various size guides
- Guide Post Driver kits
- Picker Post Puller
- Air hose and fittings
Pneumatic Post Driver Optional Attachments
Striking Dolly
There are 2 dollys in the box with the driver. A dolly will fatigue between 5,000 to 15,000 posts depending on the type of ground and how the driver is used. Farmers will probably never need another dolly while contractors will break them after continual use. It is advisable to always have a spare dolly so you can continue to use the driver if you break a dolly.
Adaptor Dolly
The adaptor dolly has a 25mm hole with 6 sets of grub screws to hold any tool you want to make up yourself. This could be a ramming bar, bead breaker, rock breaker, chisel, flat faced tamper for compacting mud brick and earthen walls etc. To use the adaptor dolly firstly remove the guide then unscrew the retaining nut and replace the striking dolly with the adaptor dolly. Do not replace the guide. Anti-seize grease needs to be used on the shank of the tool.
Chisels
Chisels are 1150mm long and fit directly into the driver. Anti-seize grease MUST be used on the shank of the tool.
Picks
Picks are 1150mm long and fit directly into the driver. Anti-seize grease MUST be used on the shank of the tool.
Bead Breaker
Bead Breakers are 38mm long and fit directly into the driver. Anti-seize grease MUST be used on the shank of the tool.
Guide Post Drive Kits
Drive kits are available for Dura-Post,Ezy-Drive and Smart posts. Other sized drive kits can be made to your needs.
Guides
The standard guide supplied is 54mm.Additional guides are available from 56mm to 145mm bore.
Plugs to suit
2", 3", 4" and 5" pipe. To be placed in the top of the pipe and then transferred to the next pipe.
Picket Post Puller
Can remove a star post from any sort of ground including bitumen without bending the post.The operator can attach the puller to the base of the post without the need to bend down. The puller then works the post out of the ground with a straight vertical action always working at ground level. A simple mechanical tool, the puller is easily used by anyone and pays for itself by recovering your posts straight and ready to reuse.
Puller Jaw
Same jaw as the puller, to use on a chain on tractor/backhoe.
Air Hose
1/2" air hose MUST BE USED or performance of the driver will be reduced.
