    About Hammers

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

    High-Visibility Dead Blow Mallets

    A fluorescent orange color makes these mallets easy to see. The head is loaded with metal shot for added weight and a controlled impact with minimal rebound. All are suitable for driving chisels and striking work without damaging its surface. Choose a lighter weight mallet 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. A textured grip provides slip resistance.
    Polyurethane Rubber Face

    Polyurethane rubber faces resist oils and solvents and won't crack under high impact. They're softer than metal faces, so they're good for striking plastic, wood, and sheet metal.
    Medium Face—Medium faces have a hardness that's suitable for most general purpose applications.
    Face Hardness Rating—All have a face hardness rating for comparing their hardness with other 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.
    Polyethylene Face

    Polyethylene faces are harder than rubber and SBR faces. 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.
    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.
