HAMMERS/SLEDGE HAMMERS

Hand Drillers | Engineer Hammers | Cross Pein Hammers | Back-Out Punches | Sledge Hammers

Ancient history tells us that simple hammers were made of various shaped stones to strike wood, bone, and other stones for useful purposes and as time went on sharp stones were attached to sticks with strips of leather or animal sinew and used much like today’s modern hammers.

Archeological records show that the hammer – like the axe- is one of the oldest tools with evidence of early existence.

There are numerous type of hammers, and each hammer has various parts. These include the face, head (which can include the bell and neck), eye (like other handled tools, where the handle fits in), cheek (side of hammer). In addition, some have peens (also known as peins and/or panes) and straps.

The essential part of the hammer is the head, a compact solid mass able to deliver the blow to its intended target without becoming deformed itself. The opposite working end may have a different shape or it may be symmetrical. Council Tool hammers are heat treated after turning, providing a superior tool head.
