Dead blow hammer Wiha Safety soft-face hammer black/black

The Wiha Safety soft-face dead blow hammer features powder-coated safety shells made from malleable cast iron with grooves to keep the faces and handle securely in place. The hammer has a hickory shaft with an ergonomic profile and non-slip surface, and soft, wear-resistant black caoutchouc faces to minimise surface damage and absorb impact.

Advantages

The dead blow design and soft caoutchouc faces reduce rebound and concentrate impact energy while protecting work surfaces. Powder-coated malleable cast iron housing provides durability and secure retention of the faces and handle. The ergonomic hickory handle with non-slip finish improves grip and control during repetitive tasks.

Suitable for

• Tile laying and paving
• Curbstone setting
• Dry wall construction

How to use

Hold the hickory handle with a secure grip and position the soft-face against the workpiece. Deliver controlled strikes using the dead blow action to minimise rebound and protect the surface. For paving, tile laying or curbstone setting, apply repeated measured impacts until the element is seated. Inspect faces before use and replace if excessively worn to maintain protection and performance.

Usage recommendations

Use the hammer suited to the material hardness: the medium-soft caoutchouc faces are intended to protect finished surfaces and absorb impact; for heavy striking on very hard materials consider using appropriate harder-faced tools. Store dry to prevent handle degradation and check the GS-mark and general condition regularly.
