Hammer Dedra 900 g metal head with hickory handle – sheet metal/auto body work

Dedra 900 g hammer with a metal head and a hickory handle is designed for sheet metal and auto body work. The tool combines a 900 g striking head with a shaped peen for controlled deformation and shaping of metal surfaces. The hickory wooden handle provides a firm grip and reduces vibration transmitted to the user during repetitive striking, making the hammer suitable for repair shops and metalworking tasks that require accuracy and endurance.

Advantages

The solid metal head delivers consistent impact energy for shaping and flattening sheet metal without excessive rebound. The 900 g mass balances force and control for most bodywork and metalworking operations. A hickory handle offers natural shock absorption and improved durability compared with standard hardwoods, while the ergonomic profile helps maintain a secure grip during use. The peen geometry is optimized for working with panels, allowing targeted blows and reduced risk of overworking the metal.

Suitable for

• Auto body repair and panel beating
• Sheet metal shaping and straightening
• Workshop repairs and maintenance
• Metal fabrication tasks requiring controlled striking

Key specifications

• Head material: forged steel metal head designed for striking and shaping
• Head weight: approximately 900 g for balanced impact energy
• Peen type: shaped peen suitable for panel work and localized deformation
• Handle material: hickory wood for shock absorption and strength
• Handle design: ergonomically shaped for secure grip and control

How to use

Hold the hammer near the end of the hickory handle for maximum leverage and control. Use measured, controlled strikes appropriate to the metal thickness and desired deformation; avoid excessive force to prevent over-stretching or denting the workpiece. For panel straightening, begin with lighter taps to assess movement, then increase force gradually. Inspect the head and handle before each use and replace the tool if the handle is cracked or the head is loose.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate eye protection and gloves when working with sheet metal. Store the hammer in a dry place to preserve the hickory handle and inspect the connection between head and handle regularly to ensure safe operation.
