Change out the faces when they become worn. The head on these hammers is loaded with metal shot for added weight and a controlled impact with minimal rebound. Use them to demolish material, form metal, and drive punches, chisels, and masonry drills. For demolition work, choose a hammer with a face that's harder than your workpiece. Longer and heavier hammers deliver greater impact.

Press-fit hammers have nylon plastic faces with a hardness similar to that of a bowling ball.
