Hammer with wooden handle Polax 1000 g — claw hammer for general use

Polax hammer with wooden handle, 1000 g head weight, designed for general carpentry and light construction tasks. The tool combines a solid wooden shaft with a balanced forged head and a claw for nail removal, providing controlled striking force and basic shock absorption. This hammer is suitable for both DIY and professional short-duration tasks where reliable, simple striking performance is required.

Advantages

The wooden handle provides a comfortable grip and natural vibration dampening, reducing hand fatigue during repetitive striking. The 1000 g forged steel head delivers sufficient mass for driving common nails and fasteners while maintaining control. The claw design allows efficient nail extraction without additional tools. The overall weight distribution supports accurate strikes and makes the hammer suitable for a range of light to moderate tasks.

Suitable for

• Driving common nails in timber and softwood
• Assembly and framing work in general carpentry
• Household repairs and DIY projects
• Light demolition and removal of small fixtures

Key specifications

• Head weight: 1000 g
• Handle material: solid wood (shock-absorbing shaft)
• Head material: forged steel
• Type: claw hammer (straight or slightly curved claw for nail removal)
• Balance: designed for controlled striking and accuracy
• Intended use: general carpentry, household and light construction tasks

How to use

Hold the wooden handle near the end of the shaft to maximize striking leverage and control. Position the nail and tap gently to set it, then strike with firm, controlled blows to drive the nail to the desired depth. Use the claw to remove nails by sliding the claw under the nail head and applying leverage against a block or the wood surface to protect the workpiece. Inspect the handle and head connection before use and replace the hammer if the head becomes loose or the handle is cracked.

Usage recommendations

For safety, wear eye protection and gloves when using the hammer. Use a wooden or soft-faced mallet when working with delicate surfaces to avoid marring. Store the hammer in a dry place to prevent handle swelling or deterioration; periodically check the head-to-handle fit and sand or refinish the wooden handle if splinters appear.
