Hammers, these are common items and we all have at least used this tool once. Hammers are usually found at homes, workshops, plantations, livestock and uses for building construction activities and many more places.

In this era, there are various types of hammers with original materials. In this blog we will discuss the type of Sledge Hammer. Sledgehammer is a hammer with a head made of iron with two flat ends. The size of the sledgehammer is larger than the usual hammer and has a long handle. This hammer is used by swinging with both hands so that the impact is very large. This hammer is specially operated to apply pressure to large objects. Such as to break up stone and cement objects.

How to choose a best quality of sledgehammer??

Surely, it must be solid. The handle on the hammer is made of 1 wooden handle or 1 steel only. The optimal results and use of a sledgehammer can be seen from how strong the hammer head and hammer shaft are tightly attached. So that when used for a hard thing, both the hammer head and the hammer handle will not be separated and the hammer handle will not break easily. We can see the examples and details of the hammer on this Groz’s sledgehammer.

Based on the picture above, the handle comprises 6 spring steel rods (9/32)” or (7.1mm) in diameter, which are resistant to continuous hard effects. The rods are locked with the hammer head using a steel lock plate to ensure the hammer head does not and the vulcanized rubber handle absorbs impact & vibration, reducing user fatigue protects user in the event of striking an electrical wire made from a special grade of ozone resistant rubber for tough outside environments, handles on most head sizes weigh more than the head, allowing the user to apply double the torque on any struck surface.
