Sung Jong Kee (L), director, and Greg Henry, sales manager, were on hand at AED to help introduce dealers to the Soosan hydraulic hammer line.

One of South Korea's largest hydraulic hammer manufacturers is coming to the United States. But while the name of this manufacturer may be relatively unknown, the product likely isn't: Soosan hydraulic hammers had previously been sold by Allied Hammers for the U.S. market.

Soosan's breaker product lineup consists of the SB compact series, the SB TS-P series and the SQ series. Here are some of the features and benefits of each of these lines:

SB Compact Series
