On this page you will find the bench hammer with article number PM 804080. Below you can read what this type of hammer is suitable for and what to look out for when choosing, so you know whether this weight and design suit your work.

What work do you use a 800 g bench hammer for?

A bench hammer is mainly used for jobs where you want to strike with some force, but still with control. Think of striking chisels and punches, aligning parts, driving in pins, or assembling and disassembling parts at the workbench. A weight of 800 g is heavier than a regular claw hammer and gives more striking force, without needing a sledgehammer.

Hickory handle: why this material?

Hickory is a wood type widely used for hammer handles, because the wood is tough and resilient. A wooden handle absorbs part of the vibrations when striking and often feels comfortable in the hand. Keep in mind that wood is a natural product: store the hammer dry and check the handle regularly for cracks or a loose head, so you can keep working safely.

Protective cover and maintenance

The hammer is supplied with a protective sleeve. It helps protect the head during storage and transport, for example in a toolbox or work van. After use, put the hammer back in a dry place and only use it for its intended purpose. For example, do not strike hardened steel with a regular bench hammer.
