FAQs

What makes this rubber mallet "non-marking"?

The striking face is made of a specially hardened white rubber compound designed to absorb impact without leaving indentations or scuffs on the surface it strikes.

Is this mallet suitable for heavy construction work?

No, the 16oz weight is best suited for DIY, assembly, and tasks requiring a gentle touch. For heavy construction, a heavier-duty mallet or hammer would be more appropriate.

How do I clean the rubber mallet?

Wipe the mallet with a damp cloth after use. For tougher dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing and thorough drying.

What is the shaft made of?

The shaft is constructed from durable fibreglass, providing strength and resistance to breaking.

Can I use this mallet on metal surfaces?

Yes, the non-marking white rubber face makes it suitable for light work on metal surfaces where cosmetic damage is a concern, such as gently persuading metal components into place.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Specific warranty information is best obtained from the retailer or Amtech directly, as it can vary by region and seller.

Troubleshooting

Mallet head feels loose

Ensure the mallet is not used for tasks that exceed its intended force. If loose, it may require professional repair or replacement. Avoid striking with excessive force.

Striking face is dirty and leaving marks

Clean the white striking face with a damp cloth. Ensure no grit or debris is adhering to the surface before striking.

Fibreglass shaft shows signs of damage

Discontinue use immediately and inspect for cracks or splinters. For safety, replace the mallet if the shaft is compromised.
