Hammer EPM model E-420-2010, locksmith/engineer's hammer, plastic handle, 100 g head

EPM E-420-2010 is a locksmith/engineer's hammer with a 100 g steel head and a molded plastic handle, intended for light striking, assembly and small metalwork tasks. The compact, lightweight construction allows for precise, controlled blows in maintenance, repair and hobby projects where a delicate touch is required. The hammer balances head mass and handle ergonomics to reduce user fatigue during repetitive short strikes.

Advantages

The steel head provides consistent impact force for light tapping while resisting deformation. A molded plastic handle offers a secure grip and insulation against cold and vibration compared with bare metal handles. The 100 g head makes the tool easy to control for precision work and small assemblies. The overall size and weight favor accessibility in tight spaces and reduce the risk of overdriving fasteners or damaging fragile parts.

Suitable for

• Light assembly and fitting of small components
• Fine metal shaping and sheet metal adjustments
• Maintenance and repair tasks requiring controlled taps
• Hobbyist and model-making work
• Workshop tasks in confined or delicate areas

Key specifications

• Head material: steel
• Head weight: 100 g
• Handle material: molded plastic
• Tool type: locksmith / engineer's hammer for light striking
• Typical use: precision tapping, small metalwork, assembly

How to use

Hold the molded plastic handle close to its end to maximize control and deliver accurate, short-range blows. Position the workpiece securely and strike with measured force appropriate to the material and fastener being worked on. For repetitive tapping, maintain a steady rhythm and check the condition of the head and handle before use. Avoid using the hammer for heavy demolition or as a substitute for larger striking tools; the 100 g head is intended for light, controlled impacts.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the hammer before each use for any signs of handle damage or head loosening. Use protective eyewear when striking metal, and select the EPM E-420-2010 for tasks that require precision rather than heavy force.
