The hide faces are designed to be easily replaced. Simply remove the old faces and insert the new ones. Spare faces are available for purchase.
The hammer features a malleable iron head and buffalo hide faces on a wooden shaft.
The hide faces absorb the shock of the impact and prevent damage to the surface of the item being struck.
While versatile, this hammer is best suited for use on softer materials where a controlled impact is needed.
The frequency of replacement depends on the usage. Inspect the faces regularly and replace them when they show signs of wear or damage.
Choose a hammer size appropriate for the task. The size 2 (38mm) is a general-purpose option.
