Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the 205C.100 suitable for delicate automotive work?

This model is primarily for heavy-duty engineering; for delicate work, a lighter model like the 250g or 300g version is recommended.

Does the graphite core make the hammer heavy?

The graphite core is lightweight; the 1000g weight refers specifically to the steel head, which is the primary driver of the hammer's overall mass.

What is the total length of this hammer?

The total length is 360mm, providing a comfortable reach for most standard workshop tasks.

Can I replace the handle?

Facom hammers of this type are designed as a single integrated unit for safety; handle replacement is not recommended.

What does the DIN designation mean?

DIN stands for Deutsches Institut für Normung (German Institute for Standardization), ensuring the tool meets specific quality and safety metrics.

Troubleshooting

Handle feeling loose or vibrating excessively

Inspect the head-to-handle interface for any cracks in the coating; if visible, discontinue use immediately.

Surface rust appearing on the hammer head

Use a fine abrasive cloth to remove the rust and apply a thin layer of machine oil to protect the metal.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent vibration dampening thanks to the graphite core
  • Balanced weight distribution for precise strikes
  • High-quality construction meeting strict DIN standards
  • Ergonomic handle improves comfort over long shifts

Cons

  • Heavier 1000g weight can cause fatigue for some users
  • Not intended for delicate or finish work
  • Less compact than lighter models in the series

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The hammer arrives ready for immediate use; no assembly is required. Because this is a high-impact tool, ensure the head remains free of debris before use. To maintain the life of the handle, avoid using the side of the head for prying tasks, as this can place unnecessary stress on the handle-to-head junction. Clean the head with a light machine oil occasionally to prevent oxidation, and inspect the handle for any deep gouges that might compromise the integrity of the protective coating. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the elasticity and grip of the handle material.
