Replaceable-Face Dead Blow Mallets
The replaceable faces can be changed out when worn. These mallets have a head 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. The polyurethane rubber faces resist oils and solvents and won't crack under high impact; they're often used on plastic, wood, and sheet metal. To avoid marring when tapping or striking, choose 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. The handle has a ribbed grip for slip resistance.
Medium faces have a hardness that's suitable for most general purpose applications. Extra-hard faces have a hardness similar to that of a hard hat.
Hickory handles resist vibration.

Replaceable-Face Mallets
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.

Create-Your-Own Mallets
Pair a body with two faces of different materials to create the perfect striking tool. Use mallets to drive chisels and strike work without damaging its surface. To avoid marring, use 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 for clamping-head face mount mallets have a head with two pieces that clamp together to grip faces tightly. They include a head, nut, and replaceable handle. To assemble, loosen the nut under the head, insert the faces, and tighten the nut.
