Hammer Bahco 481F-300 300g steel head rubber grip

The Bahco 481F-300 hammer is a compact hand tool designed for light to medium striking tasks. It features a 300 g forged steel head that provides durability and reliable impact performance, together with a rubber grip handle that improves comfort and reduces slippage during repetitive use. This tool is suitable for a range of construction, repair and assembly jobs where controlled striking force is required.

Advantages

The forged steel head ensures consistent hardness and resistance to chipping, while the 300 g weight balances control and energy transfer for accurate strikes. The rubber grip absorbs some vibration and offers a secure hold in wet or oily conditions. The compact size supports work in confined spaces and makes the hammer easy to carry and store.

Suitable for

• Small carpentry and woodworking tasks
• General household repairs and fixtures
• Light masonry and chisel work
• Workshop assembly and maintenance
• Sheet metal and light fastening operations

Key specifications

• Head material: forged steel
• Head weight: 300 g
• Handle material: ergonomic rubber grip
• Total length: compact size for one-handed use (approximate typical sizing for this class)
• Finish: polished striking face with anti-corrosion coating on head

How to use

Hold the hammer by its rubber grip close to the end of the handle for maximum control and leverage. Position the striking face squarely on the fastener or tool head to avoid glancing blows. Use measured, controlled swings suited to the 300 g head weight—lighter taps for alignment and firmer strikes for driving nails or shaping materials. Inspect the head and handle before use for signs of wear or damage and replace the tool if any structural faults are detected.

Usage recommendations

For safety and optimal performance, wear eye protection and keep a firm two-handed stance when working. Use the Bahco 481F-300 for tasks appropriate to its weight—avoid heavy demolition or high-force applications that require a heavier hammer. Clean and dry the rubber grip after use to maintain a secure hold and periodically check the striking face for burrs or deformation.
