    Hit the nail on the head with the right hammer; choose by main feature, material, and size.

    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.
    Press-Fit Nylon Face
    Nylon faces are softer than metal faces, so they're good for striking plastic, wood, and sheet metal.
    Ash Handle—Ash handles resist vibration.
    Hard Face—Hard faces have a hardness similar to that of a bowling ball.
    Face Hardness Rating—All have a face hardness rating for comparing their hardness with other rubber and plastic faces.

    Mallets

    Drive chisels with control and strike workpieces without damaging their surface.
    When choosing a mallet, consider the face material, overall length, and head weight. To avoid marring, the face material should be softer than your workpiece. Use shorter, lighter mallets for tapping parts into place or making small cuts with a chisel. Use longer, heavier mallets for assembling joints, dislodging stuck parts, and making aggressive chisel cuts.
    Rawhide Leather Face

    Rawhide leather faces won't distort the surface of soft sheet metal, such as brass, aluminum, and copper. They’re more durable than polyethylene faces. Those with a lead head deliver a heavier, more balanced blow than those with rawhide heads.
    Hickory Handle—Our most vibration-resistant handles, they keep the force of blows from buzzing through your arm.
