Product Information

Full details

The Thor Super Plastic Split Head Hammer is a professional-grade striking tool engineered for assembly, repair, and maintenance technicians who require high-impact force without damaging delicate surfaces. Its primary benefit is the combination of a heavy-duty cast iron head with resilient, replaceable super plastic faces that offer controlled impact, though users should note that the specialized plastic faces are designed specifically for industrial applications and may require periodic replacement depending on usage frequency.

FAQs

Can I replace just one face?

Yes, the modular design allows for the individual replacement of either striking face or the handle as needed.

Are the replacement faces sold separately?

Yes, replacement faces are available and can be installed easily using the existing socket head screws.

What tools do I need to maintain the hammer?

You will need a standard hex key (Allen wrench) that fits the socket head cap screws on the hammer head.

Is the handle replaceable?

Yes, the handle is designed to be user-replaceable if it becomes damaged or worn over time.

Can this hammer be used on metal surfaces?

Yes, the super plastic faces are designed to strike metal without leaving marks or damaging the surface finish.

Troubleshooting

Hammer face feels loose during use

Tighten the two socket head cap screws using a compatible hex key until the face is firmly seated against the cast iron head.

Face shows uneven wear patterns

Loosen the securing screws and rotate the plastic face by 90 or 180 degrees to expose an unused surface area.

Striking face is cracked or heavily deformed

Remove the socket head cap screws and replace the worn face with a genuine Thor replacement part.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable split cast iron head construction
  • Non-marring impact surface protects delicate work
  • Fully replaceable and rotatable face components
  • Easy to maintain with modular handle and head assembly

Cons

  • Requires periodic maintenance of fasteners
  • Not suitable for extremely high-heat applications
  • Replacement faces must be sourced specifically for this model

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, verify that the two socket head cap screws holding the faces are tightened securely before first use. If the faces become uneven after extensive operation, loosen the screws, rotate the faces to a fresh angle, and re-tighten. To replace components, simply use the appropriate hex key to back out the socket head screws. For long-term care, store the hammer in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of the cast iron head. Regularly inspect the handle for signs of fatigue or cracking to maintain safety during heavy striking tasks.
