For levering or nail removal during demolition, a 900mm pound through pry bar provides strong leverage to separate materials.

After area preparation and safety checks, it delivers high-impact strikes to break apart materials like concrete, brick, or stone. Following use, the tool requires cleaning and proper storage to maintain its condition.
