QuikFence Percussion Post Driver for Post-Disaster Fence Rebuilds

How do you get a boundary fence back up when floodwater has left the ground set like concrete, or a cyclone has scattered timber and rock straight through the old fence line? This is the exact problem a percussion post driver is built to solve, and it's why so many Queensland contractors reach for one first when a disaster recovery job lands on the schedule.

A percussion post driver, often called a hammer post driver or post rammer, works through rapid, repeated hydraulic strikes rather than one slow, heavy drop. That rhythm matters on post-disaster ground, where flood-affected soil compacts unevenly, storm debris hides rock just below the surface, and a single mistimed hit can bend a post or knock it off line. QuikFence's ThunderPro range, including the Nitro 360 and Nitro 460 units, is engineered for exactly this kind of unpredictable terrain, chipping through hard or rocky pockets instead of stalling the way manual methods often do.

Flexibility of attachment is what makes an excavator post driver such a practical choice during a rebuild. The ThunderPro range is designed to fit tractors, skid steers, mini loaders, telehandlers, and excavators of all sizes, so a machine already clearing debris on-site can switch straight over to driving posts without booking separate gear. A new side-tilt function, adjustable 15 degrees in each direction for a full 30-degree range, keeps posts straight and level even on washouts, eroded banks, or paddocks left lumpy after a fire, whether the operator is running a top-mounted unit on a larger machine or a side-mount option on a skid steer.

Speed is really what disaster recovery comes down to. Every incomplete stretch of fence is a gap livestock can wander through, and insurance assessors or local councils often expect a rebuild reinstated to a recognisable standard before they'll sign off. That steady, rapid-impact rhythm produces straighter lines and matched post depth across long boundary runs, cutting down the hours a crew would otherwise spend levering out bent posts and resetting alignment by hand.

ThunderPro Hydraulic Post Driver Suits All Excavators - QuikFence 

What's the most reliable way to drive fence posts into hard, rocky, or uneven ground without burning out your crew or your machine? The ThunderPro Post Driver from QuikFence answers that question directly, using hammer-style technology and hydraulic power to generate the force needed where standard post drivers fail.

The ThunderPro percussion post driver delivers rapid, controlled hits that drive posts to a consistent depth, producing straighter lines, better alignment, and a more stable fence line over the long term. A new side tilt option adds 15 degrees of movement in each direction, for a full 30 degrees of adjustment, making it far easier to line up posts accurately on sloping or uneven paddocks.

Two excavator-mounted models sit at the core of the range. The Nitro 360 runs a 70mm chisel, weighs 296kg, and operates on 40 to 70 l/min hydraulic flow at 110 to 140 bar, delivering an impact rate of 500 to 900 blows per minute on excavators from 4.5 to 6 tonnes. The Nitro 460 steps up to a 75mm chisel and 396kg operating weight, running on 50 to 90 l/min at 120 to 150 bar for 400 to 800 blows per minute, and suits excavators from 6 to 8.5 tonnes. Both are also available in Open Jacket form, which strips the sound suppression casing for use in open paddocks away from built-up areas; operators running the Open Jacket models should wear hearing protection.

As a hydraulic post driver, the ThunderPro attaches to tractors, mini loaders, skid steers, loaders, telehandlers, and excavators of all sizes, using heavy-duty quick-attach hitches built for popular brands, with custom hitch options available on request. Its working mechanisms stay fully uncased except for the hammer itself, which only extends on impact, keeping operators safer without sacrificing the pneumatic post driver power that makes the ThunderPro fast in the ground. Fuelled by Nitro power, it's built to cut fatigue on both operator and machine while holding consistent depth and alignment across the run, which in turn reduces labour costs on fencing, agricultural, construction, signage, and limited marine projects.

QuikFence ThunderPro Excavator Post Driver for Tough Rocky Ground

What hammer post driver can punch fence posts through rock without slowing the job down? The ThunderPro percussion post driver from QuikFence generates significant force to drive posts into hard or rocky soil where standard alternatives fail, making it a trusted excavator post driver for farmers, fencing contractors, and rural operators.

Built like a jack hammer, the ThunderPro post hammer comes in two core models. The Nitro 360 runs a 70mm chisel diameter, weighs 296kg, and operates at 110-140 bar with an impact rate of 500-900 blows per minute, suited to excavators from 4.5 to 6 tonnes. The Nitro 460 scales up with a 75mm chisel, 396kg operating weight, 120-150 bar pressure, and a quieter 400-800 bpm impact rate, fitted to excavators from 6 to 8.5 tonnes for work closer to built-up areas. Open Jacket versions of both models drop the internal sound suppression for open paddock work, where hearing protection is recommended.

The ThunderPro post hammer attaches to tractors, mini loaders, skid steers, loaders, and telehandlers, plus excavators of all sizes via side mount or top mount, using heavy-duty hitches built for all popular brands. A new side-tilt option adds 15 degrees of movement left and right, for 30 degrees total, helping operators line up posts accurately on sloping or uneven ground. The hammer mechanism stays exposed only on impact, keeping operators safer than older designs while delivering consistent depth and alignment along the fence line.

Best Percussion Post Driver for Rocky Australian Soil - QuikFence 

Rocky Australian soil stops a lot of fencing jobs before they even get started. Whether it's compacted clay in the Darling Downs or gravel-heavy ground across the Granite Belt, standard post drivers either bounce off the surface or drag out what should be a half-day job into something far more exhausting.

The ThunderPro from QuikFence is a percussion post driver built specifically to work through that kind of resistance. Instead of relying on downward pressure, it delivers rapid jackhammer-style strikes - the same percussion principle used in breaking concrete - to drive fence posts through hard, rocky soil that would stop other drivers cold. Posts go in faster, sit at a consistent depth, and stay properly vertical from the first hit.

QuikFence makes the ThunderPro in two core models. The Nitro 360 suits excavators between 4.5t and 6t, running at 500 to 900 beats per minute with a 70mm chisel diameter. The Nitro 460 handles heavier machines in the 6t to 8.5t range, operating at 400 to 800 beats per minute with a 75mm chisel diameter and a quieter operating system suited to stock yards and areas near people or livestock. Both models come in standard and Open Jacket versions for open paddock use, and both run on a fully enclosed working mechanism - the fence post hammer only extends on the strike, which keeps the operator's line of sight clear throughout the job.

The ThunderPro fits excavators, tractors, mini loaders, skid steers, loaders, and telehandlers, with side mount and top mount options available. An optional 30° side tilt - 15° each way - handles uneven or sloping ground without repositioning the machine mid-post.

If rocky Australian soil has been the problem, this percussion post driver is the fix. Contact QuikFence on 1800 062 723, email [email protected], or visit 449 East Street, Warwick QLD 4370. Read more!

ThunderPro: The Percussion Hammer Post Driver for QLD - QuikFence

Driving posts into hard, rocky Queensland soil by hand is slow, exhausting work - and the wrong machine makes it worse. Farmers, fencing contractors, and rural operators need a hammer post driver that generates real force in tough ground conditions, not just soft paddocks.

The QuikFence ThunderPro is a percussion-powered hammer post driver built specifically for those conditions. Using jackhammer-style delivery, it produces rapid, controlled strikes to break through compacted clay, gravel seams, and rock shelves where other drivers stall. The result is consistent post depth, improved alignment, and a professional finish across every run of fence line.

The ThunderPro range covers two core hydraulic models. The Nitro 360 suits excavators in the 4.5t to 6t range, operating at 500 to 900 beats per minute with a 70mm chisel diameter. The Nitro 460 steps up for 6t to 8.5t machines, runs at 400 to 800 BPM with a 75mm chisel, and operates quieter - practical when working near livestock, stockyards, or residential areas. Both models are available in standard and Open Jacket versions; Open Jacket suits open paddocks away from built-up areas, though hearing protection is required.

The optional side tilt feature adds 15° left and 15° right - 30° total - making it far easier to drive posts plumb on sloping or uneven terrain. The ThunderPro attaches to tractors, mini loaders, skid steers, loaders, telehandlers, and excavators of all sizes via heavy-duty hitches that suit all popular brands, with custom fitment options available. Working mechanisms are fully enclosed except for the hammer itself, which only extends on impact, keeping operators safe and in clear line of sight at all times. The ThunderPro's rapid percussion directly cuts labour hours, reduces physical strain on the crew, and produces consistent results that make wire tensioning and gate hanging easier down the track - all part of what QuikFence has engineered into every unit.
