    About Hammers

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

    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.

    SBR faces are softer than metal or plastic faces, so they’re good for striking plastic, wood, and thin sheet metal.
    Hickory Handle—Our most vibration-resistant handles, they keep the force of blows from buzzing through your arm.

    White Face—Won’t leave marks on your surface.
    Face Hardness Rating—We rate plastic and rubber faces to help you compare their hardness. The softer the face, the less likely it is to mar delicate workpieces. The harder the face, the more force you can apply with each tap.
