Use the domed end of the head for forming soft metal, rounding off edges, and closing rivets. The flat striking face is for driving nails, pins, punches, and chisels. For replacement handles, see Hickory Hammer Handles and Fiberglass Hammer Handles.
Hickory and beech handles resist vibration. Steel handles are stronger than wooden handles but have less vibration resistance. Fiberglass handles combine the strength of steel with the vibration resistance of wood.
Textured and ribbed grips provide slip resistance.
Hammers with a tether ring are a good choice for working at height. Hook the ring onto a carabiner or lanyard to prevent the hammer from falling to the ground if dropped.

Air-Powered Sheet Metal Forming Hammers
These air-powered tools remove dents, smooth out ridges, and shape sheet metal more efficiently than manual hammers. Fast, controlled blows allow you to create a smooth, even finish. Hammers include attachments with different radius sizes to form a variety of shapes and finishes. They have a sturdy metal frame to keep the hammer in place and a foot pedal to control the speed, leaving both hands free to guide the workpiece. An automatic oiler keeps the machine running smoothly.
