Choosing the Right Hammer for the Job
A claw hammer suits general carpentry and nail work, while a heavier club or sledge hammer is needed for demolition and masonry breaking. Soft face hammers, such as Thor copper or rawhide, are used where a steel hammer would damage the material, common in fitting and assembly work.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a claw hammer and a framing hammer?
A claw hammer is a general-purpose hammer for driving and pulling nails, a framing hammer is typically heavier with a longer handle for faster, higher impact framing work.
What is a soft face hammer used for?
Striking a surface without marking or damaging it, common in fitting metal parts or delicate assembly, Thor's copper and rawhide range covers this use.
What is a pry bar used for?
Levering, prying and demolition work, such as removing nails, separating boards, or breaking apart fixed structures.
Do you stock one-piece forged hammers?
Yes, Estwing hammers are forged from a single piece of steel for maximum durability.
What is the difference between a wrecking bar and a pry bar?
