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.

To suit a range of applications, these sets include hammers in a range of sizes and weights. 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.

Strike metal, concrete, and stone with the flat end of these hammers; the wedge-shaped end is for bending and shaping metal. They're also known as cross-peen hammers. For replacement handles, see Hickory Hammer Handles.

Hickory handles resist vibration. Steel handles are stronger than hickory handles but have less vibration resistance. Polypropylene handles with fiberglass core resist breakage if you miss your mark.

Textured and ribbed grips provide slip resistance.
