Hammer BRADAS Schlosserhammer 400 g, fiberglass handle with non-slip TPR coating, anthracite/orange

BRADAS Schlosserhammer 400 g is a utility locksmith hammer with a 400 g steel head and a fiberglass handle finished in anthracite with orange accents. The fiberglass shaft provides reduced vibration and higher shock resistance compared with traditional wooden handles, while the thermoplastic rubber (TPR) coating gives a non-slip grip for secure handling during assembly, metalworking and general repair tasks. The hammer is sized for light to medium-duty work and designed for both home DIY and professional trade use where precise striking and durability are required.

Advantages

The combination of a hardened steel head and a fiberglass handle with TPR coating offers balance between impact performance and user comfort. Reduced vibration from the fiberglass handle lowers user fatigue and helps protect the striking surface, while the non-slip TPR coating improves grip in varied conditions. The 400 g head weight provides controlled striking force suitable for shaping, driving small punches or chisels, and general fastening tasks without excessive rebound.

Suitable for

• Light to medium metalworking and locksmith tasks
• Assembly, fastening and repair work in workshops
• Home DIY projects requiring controlled striking
• Use with small punches, chisels and cold-working operations

When it may not be suitable

This 400 g hammer is not intended for heavy demolition or large-scale masonry work where a heavier sledge or club hammer is required. For precision finishing work on delicate surfaces, a softer-faced mallet may be more appropriate to avoid surface marring.

Key specifications

• Head material: hardened steel
• Head weight: 400 g
• Handle material: fiberglass shaft
• Handle finish: non-slip TPR coating
• Colour: anthracite handle with orange accents
• Intended use: locksmith/utility hammer for light to medium tasks

How to use

Hold the hammer by the TPR-coated handle near the end of the fiberglass shaft to maximize leverage and control. Use controlled, measured strikes when shaping metal, driving punches or performing assembly tasks. Maintain a clear work area and ensure the striking surface and tool to be struck are properly supported. Inspect the hammer before use for any damage to the head seating or handle surface; do not use if the head is loose or the handle is fractured.

What to consider before purchase

• Match head weight (400 g) to the type of tasks you will perform
• Choose fiberglass handle for reduced vibration and durability compared with wooden handles
• Confirm non-slip TPR coating is suitable for your working environment (oily vs dry conditions)
• Ensure the hammer size fits storage and transport requirements

Usage recommendations

For optimal lifespan, store the hammer dry and clean after use, avoid striking hardened steel surfaces with excessive force, and periodically check the TPR coating and handle for wear. Use appropriate eye protection and gloves when performing metalworking or striking tasks.
