Cross-peen hammer Gedore 4 E-300 Steel head Wood handle 30 cm 440 g

The Gedore 4 E-300 cross-peen hammer combines a hardened steel head with a straight wooden handle to provide a balance of control and impact for precision tasks. The hammer has a 300 g head and a total weight of 440 g, with a 30 cm handle length that offers reach and leverage while maintaining manoeuvrability. The cross-peen face allows concentrated blows along narrow lines or for shaping metal, while the flat face provides general striking capability for both metalworking and woodworking applications.

Advantages

This tool offers precise force application thanks to its cross-peen geometry and well-balanced weight distribution. The steel head is designed for durable striking performance, and the wooden handle provides shock absorption and a comfortable grip for extended use. The 30 cm handle length is compact enough for controlled work in confined spaces yet long enough to deliver consistent impact energy.

Suitable for

• Shaping and riveting sheet metal in light metalworking
• Chiselling and striking in woodworking and carpentry
• Detail work where controlled, directional blows are required
• Small repair and assembly tasks that require a compact hammer

Key specifications

• Head material: hardened steel
• Head weight: 300 g
• Total weight: 440 g
• Handle material: wood
• Handle length: 30 cm
• Head shape: cross-peen and flat striking face

How to use

Grip the wooden handle securely with one or both hands depending on the required force and control. Use the cross-peen face for concentrating blows along edges, seams or when shaping metal, and use the flat face for general striking tasks such as driving nails or setting pins. Position the workpiece securely before striking and keep fingers clear of the impact zone. Perform strikes with controlled motion, letting the hammer’s weight and balance do the work rather than swinging excessively hard.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the wooden handle regularly for cracks or looseness at the head connection and replace the handle if damaged. Wear appropriate eye protection when working with metal or wood fragments. Store the hammer in a dry place to protect the wooden handle and prevent corrosion on the steel head.
