Product Information

Full details

The Sealey Hammer Nylon Faced - 1.75lb is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts who require a tool that delivers controlled impact without damaging delicate surfaces. Its primary benefit lies in its ability to provide a solid strike while minimizing marring, making it ideal for tasks involving metalworking, assembly, and woodworking. A key consideration is that while the nylon faces are durable, they are consumable and will eventually require replacement, unlike a purely metal hammer.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the primary advantage of a nylon-faced hammer?

The primary advantage is that it provides impact force without damaging the surface of the workpiece, unlike a steel hammer which can scratch, dent, or mar materials.

How do I know when to replace the nylon faces?

You should replace the faces when they become significantly worn, grooved, chipped, or if you notice they are no longer providing a clean strike and are starting to damage your work.

Can I use this hammer for heavy demolition?

No, this hammer is designed for controlled impacts and surface protection. For heavy demolition, a heavier sledgehammer or specialized demolition tool would be more appropriate.

What is the weight of the Sealey NFH175 hammer?

The head weighs approximately 790g, which is equivalent to 1.75lb.

Is the lifetime guarantee transferable?

Typically, lifetime guarantees are tied to the original purchaser. It is advisable to check the specific terms and conditions provided by Sealey for detailed information on transferability.

Are there different hardnesses of nylon faces available?

Yes, the product description mentions that replacement faces are available with alternative hardnesses, allowing users to tailor the hammer's impact to different materials and tasks.

How should I store this hammer to ensure its longevity?

Store the hammer in a dry environment to prevent rust on the metal head and degradation of the nylon faces. Keep it away from extreme temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Hammer face is severely damaged or worn.

Replace the nylon faces. Ensure you are using the correct Sealey replacement faces for this model (NFH175).

Hammer leaves marks on softer materials.

Ensure the nylon faces are clean and free from debris. If the faces are too hard for the material, consider if a softer faced hammer is more appropriate for the specific task.

Head feels loose on the handle.

Inspect the handle and head connection. If the hammer is of a type where the head can become loose, consult Sealey documentation for recommended tightening procedures or consider replacement if damage is apparent.

Corrosion on the chrome plating.

Clean the affected area with a soft, dry cloth. For minor spots, a very mild metal polish might be used cautiously, but avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the plating. Ensure the hammer is kept dry.
