Wooden Hammer Handle Dedra 80C206 for 5–8 kg Hammers, Length 80 cm

Wooden Hammer Handle Dedra 80C206 for 5–8 kg Hammers, Length 80 cm is a replacement handle made from hardwood and shaped to fit sledgehammers and heavy striking tools. The 80 cm length provides extended reach and leverage for tasks that require higher impact force. Designed for use in workshops, construction sites, and maintenance tasks, this handle restores the original balance and ergonomics of heavy hammers when the original handle is damaged or worn.

Advantages

The wooden construction offers a balance of strength and shock absorption, reducing vibration transmitted to the user during repeated strikes. The 80 cm length improves leverage for heavier blows while keeping control and stability. The handle is shaped for secure fitting to hammer heads intended for 5–8 kg tools, allowing safe and reliable replacement without modifying the head. Hardwood material and standard profile make it suitable for sanding, trimming and fitting to achieve a snug, custom fit.

Suitable for

• Replacing worn or damaged handles on sledgehammers and heavy hammers (5–8 kg)
• Workshop refurbishing and tool maintenance
• Construction and demolition work requiring heavy striking tools
• Custom tool assemblies where a longer handle is preferred for leverage

Key specifications

• Material: hardwood (finish may vary)
• Recommended hammer weight range: 5–8 kg
• Overall length: 80 cm
• Profile: standard sledgehammer handle shape for secure head fit
• Surface: sanded, ready for final fitting and finishing

How to use

Insert the tapered end of the handle into the hammer head eye, ensuring the head seats fully on the shoulder of the handle. Trim or sand the end as needed to create a snug fit, then fix the head using appropriate wooden wedges and, if required, a metal wedge for final securing. After fitting, check alignment and balance by swinging the hammer at low force and make any minor adjustments to the handle length or seating before full use. Finish the handle with oil or varnish if desired to protect the wood and improve grip.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the fitted head and handle regularly for cracks, loosening or wear. Replace the handle if structural damage appears. Use appropriate personal protective equipment when installing and using heavy hammers, and avoid striking hardened metal edges that can damage the handle.
