This hammer is primarily designed for brickwork, masonry, and heavy-duty construction tasks, including breaking, shaping, and setting bricks or stone.

How do I maintain the hammer to prevent rust?

Wipe the hammer head clean after use and store it in a dry place. Applying a light coat of oil to the metal head is recommended for long-term storage.

What is the weight of the hammer?

The hammer weighs 20 ounces (approximately 560 grams).

What are the dimensions of the hammer head?

The head depth is approximately 18cm, and the face is a 22mm square.

What is the function of the chisel end?

The chisel end is used for scoring bricks, blocks, or stone, making it easier to break them accurately along a marked line.

Does the hammer have a nail pulling feature?

Yes, it includes a side nail puller for multi-purpose functionality on the job site.

Troubleshooting

Hammer head feels loose

Ensure the handle is securely attached. If it remains loose, the hammer may need servicing or replacement to ensure safety.

Chisel end is dull

The chisel edge can be sharpened using a metal file or grinding wheel appropriate for tool steel. Exercise caution during sharpening.

Visible rust on the hammer head

Remove light rust with steel wool or a wire brush. For heavier rust, a rust remover product may be necessary, followed by a light oil coating for protection.
