The piston hammer includes an upward thrusting air passageway and a downward thrusting air passageway. The upward thrusting air passageway includes a radially oriented upward intake passageway and a longitudinally oriented upward discharge passageway. The upward discharge passageway is of a length greater than one half the length of the piston hammer. The downward thrusting passageway includes a radially oriented downward intake passageway and a longitudinally oriented downward discharge passageway having a threaded downward discharge port. The downward discharge passageway is of a length greater than one-half the length of the piston hammer.
