Hammer STANLEY Masonry 500 g, steel handle, model 1-51-039

STANLEY Masonry 500 g hammer, model 1-51-039, is a purpose-built masonry tool with a 500 g forged head and a durable steel handle. Designed for bricklaying, masonry and light demolition tasks, the hammer combines a balanced striking face with a pointed peen for versatile chipping and shaping of mortar and masonry materials. The steel handle provides rigidity and long-term durability for frequent on-site use.

Advantages

The hammer's 500 g head delivers consistent impact energy for driving and chipping without excessive rebound. The forged steel head and solid construction resist deformation under repeated use, while the steel handle offers improved control and stability compared with lighter composite handles. The combination of a flat striking face and a pointed peen enables both broad strikes and targeted chipping, reducing the need to switch between tools.

Suitable for

• Bricklaying and mortar removal
• Masonry shaping and chipping
• Light demolition and renovation work
• Professional construction sites and DIY projects

Key specifications

• Head weight: 500 g
• Head material: forged steel
• Handle material: steel

How to use

Hold the hammer near the end of the steel handle to maximize control and striking force. Use the flat face for general striking and setting, and use the pointed peen for chipping mortar or shaping bricks. Position workpieces securely and wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Inspect the hammer before use for any visible damage or looseness and replace the tool if the integrity of the head-handle connection is compromised.

Usage recommendations

For prolonged tool life, store the hammer in a dry place to avoid surface corrosion on the steel handle and head. Clean masonry debris from the head after use and periodically check for loose components. Use appropriate striking technique to minimize user fatigue and ensure consistent results when working with brick and mortar.
