MILWAUKEE Blacksmith Hammer 1810 g with Fiberglass Handle

The MILWAUKEE Blacksmith Hammer 1810 g with Fiberglass Handle is a heavy-duty striking tool designed for forging, shaping and general metalwork. With a mass of 1810 g concentrated in a durable steel head and a fiberglass handle engineered for shock absorption, this hammer delivers controlled force for tasks that require repeated high-impact blows. The head geometry and balanced weight distribution support accurate strikes on hot and cold metal, while the fiberglass handle reduces transmitted vibration to the user’s hand and arm.

Advantages

This blacksmith hammer provides substantial striking energy from its 1810 g head while maintaining control through a balanced design. The fiberglass handle offers greater shock damping compared with traditional wooden handles and improves durability in workshop environments. The robust steel head resists deformation under repeated forging impacts and retains its striking profile for consistent performance.

Suitable for

• Forging and shaping steel, iron and non-ferrous metals
• Driving punches, chisels and hot-working tools
• Blacksmithing in a professional or hobby workshop
• General heavy-duty striking and metalworking tasks

Key specifications

• Head weight: 1810 g
• Head material: forged steel
• Handle material: fiberglass for shock absorption
• Tool type: blacksmith/forging hammer
• Balanced head for controlled striking

How to use

Grip the fiberglass handle with a secure two-handed or single-handed hold as appropriate for the task and stance. Position the workpiece on an appropriately rated anvil or support and strike with the centre of the hammer face for even energy transfer. For driving punches and chisels, use measured blows and keep hands clear of the tool path. Inspect the head and handle connection before use and avoid striking hardened surfaces or edges that could damage the striking face.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection, heat-resistant gloves and hearing protection when working with hot metal or performing repetitive high-energy strikes. Store the hammer in a dry place and routinely check the handle and head for wear or damage; replace the tool if cracks, looseness or significant deformation occur.
