For laying paver bricks on my patio, I needed a hammer like this. I was under the impression that I had gotten a great deal. The hammer came with a warning label that stated it contained a cancer-causing chemical and that you should wash your hands after using it. That wasn't mentioned in the ad.
The metal cap on one end of the shot load dislodged after ten swings, and the shot load flew across the room. Construction is very low-cost. Spend a little more on a higher-quality item to save money.
I bought this dead blow hammer for a cobble driveway project, but it only lasted one day before splitting on both sides. Meanwhile, after three times the amount of use, the Irwin dead blow hammer is still as good as new. Consider the reasons for the low cost of this hammer; I will no longer buy this brand.
After losing my old hammer in a tragic boating accident, this, along with my belt, iron gloves, and staff, has allowed me to resume mountain crushing and enemy smiting. I can only find time for these activities these days on Thorsdays. and this hammer is always willing, able, and willing to help me!.
A ball peen hammer is harsher on my wrenches than this mallet.
It's really nice, and despite the fact that it's an injection mold, the weighty feel gives it a more premium feel. I use it a lot with beach tents to hammer the tent sticks into the ground, and it works great, especially since it's made of plastic that will last a long time even if it's exposed to salt and water. When compared to a metal one, the color is also superior, making it easy to locate even in low-light conditions.
To avoid colon perforations, I'd recommend trimming some of the casting marks before insertion. The serrations running the length of the shaft provide some interesting sensations. The flared base is great so you won't lose it, but if you do, just move around and you'll hear it because there are beads or something inside the base. What a fantastic concept! This is exactly what I'm looking for to liven up my bedroom.
I'm currently enrolled in a CNC Machining school, where we use Snap-on machines. Every day, rubber mallets are used to seat metal into vices on top of parallels and to strike the draw bolt on the top of the head when changing bits on manual mills. I got a job at a nearby CNC shop and needed to get my hands on some tools. I've had good luck with Neiko's impact socket sets and torque wrench, so I decided to give another of their products a try instead of sticking with the more expensive brand. That hammer has been fantastic for me. I've used it almost every day. I didn't realize the Snap-on was missing until it was too late. I was used to a rubber mallet as a hammer, not a dead blow. When compared to the Snap-On hammer, using this Neiko hammer, which is twice as heavy and has no rebound, feels like I'm spoiled at work. At school, this is going on. This Neiko hammer costs a sixth of the price of the Snap-On, and I wouldn't want that Snap-On at all. When comparing the two, Rubber Mallet comes out on top. I would have expected small ring shaped imprints on the face of this hammer by now, given that most of the things I'm using it on are cylindrical parts with small walls, but it's holding up surprisingly well, and I'm glad I went with this mallet.
