About Hammers

About Plastic Hammer Faces

Ribbed Grip

The head on these mallets is loaded with metal shot for added weight and a controlled impact with minimal rebound. Use them to drive chisels and strike work without damaging its surface. To avoid marring, choose a mallet with a face that's softer than your workpiece. Lighter weight mallets are good for tapping work into place and driving a chisel to make small cuts. Use heavier weight mallets when assembling joints, dislodging stuck parts, and making aggressive cuts with a chisel. Longer mallets allow for more powerful swings. All have a textured or ribbed grip for slip resistance.

Plastic faces are softer than metal faces, so they're good for striking plastic, wood, and sheet metal. All have a face hardness rating for comparing their hardness with other plastic faces. Hard faces have a hardness similar to that of a bowling ball.

Fiberglass handles combine high strength with good vibration resistance.

Create-Your-Own Dead Blow Mallets

Assembled Hammer

Match a mallet body with different face materials to create the perfect striking tool. The head is loaded with metal shot for added weight and a controlled impact with minimal rebound. Use mallets to drive chisels and strike work without damaging its surface. To avoid marring, choose a face material that's softer than your workpiece. Lighter weight mallets are good for tapping work into place and driving a chisel to make small cuts. Use heavier weight mallets when assembling joints, dislodging stuck parts, and making aggressive cuts with a chisel. Longer mallets allow for more powerful swings.

Bodies consist of a head and handle with a slip-resistant grip.

Faces screw into the head.

Rubber and plastic faces are softer than metal faces, so they're good for sheet metal work. All have a face hardness rating for comparing their hardness with other rubber and plastic faces.

Extra-soft faces have a hardness similar to that of a pencil eraser.

Soft faces have a hardness similar to that of a tire tread.

Medium-soft faces have a hardness similar to that of a shoe heel.

Medium faces have a hardness that's suitable for most general purpose applications.

Medium-hard faces have a hardness similar to that of a plastic cutting board.

Hard faces have a hardness similar to that of a bowling ball.

Extra-hard faces have a hardness similar to that of a hard hat.

Replaceable-Face Mallets

Press Fit with Plain Grip

Replace faces when they become worn rather than replacing the entire tool. These mallets are suitable for driving chisels and striking work without damaging its surface. Choose a mallet with a face that's softer than your workpiece to avoid marring it when tapping or striking. Lighter weight mallets are good for tapping work into place and driving a chisel to make small cuts. Use heavier weight mallets when assembling joints, dislodging stuck parts, and making aggressive cuts with a chisel. Longer mallets allow for more powerful swings.

Copper faces are for use on brass, copper, aluminum, and steel.

Hickory and ash handles resist vibration.

Nonsparking Ball Peen Hammers

The face and head are made of aluminum-bronze that is Factory Mutual approved, so these tools inhibit sparking, resist corrosion, and are nonmagnetic. They satisfy OSHA requirements that specify nonsparking tools for locations where flammable vapors and combustible residues are present. Use the domed end of the head for forming soft metal, rounding off edges, and closing rivets. The flat striking face is for driving nails, pins, punches, and chisels. All have a textured grip for slip resistance. For replacement handles, see Fiberglass Hammer Handles.

Warning: Do not use these tools in direct contact with acetylene.

Nonsparking Sledge Hammers

14" Long Hammer

The faces and head are made of aluminum-bronze that is Factory Mutual approved, so these tools inhibit sparking and are nonmagnetic and corrosion resistant. They satisfy OSHA requirements that specify nonsparking tools for locations where flammable vapors and combustible residues are present. Use them to demolish material, form metal, and drive punches, chisels, and masonry drills. For demolition work, ensure that the workpiece is softer than the metal faces. Longer and heavier hammers deliver greater impact. All have a textured or ribbed grip for slip resistance. For replacement handles, see Fiberglass Hammer Handles.

14" long hammers are also known as engineers', drilling, club, lump, and crack hammers. Use them for light demolition and tasks where longer hammers don't have room to swing.

Warning: Do not use these tools in direct contact with acetylene.
