Riveting hammer YATO YT-4510 — steel head, wooden handle 40 cm, 2 kg

Riveting hammer YATO YT-4510 is a hand tool with a forged steel head and a 40 cm wooden handle, weighing 2 kg. It is intended for driving and setting rivets, light forging tasks and general workshop use. The solid steel head delivers consistent impact force while the wooden handle reduces transmitted vibration and provides a secure grip for controlled strikes. The tool is supplied as a single-piece assembly suitable for professional and DIY environments.

Advantages

The forged steel head offers high impact durability and resistance to deformation under repeated striking. The 40 cm wooden handle balances reach and control, helping to generate sufficient striking force while absorbing shock to reduce fatigue. At 2 kg, the hammer provides a weight optimized for rivet setting and light forging without being excessively heavy for prolonged use. The simple construction ensures ease of maintenance and long service life when used as intended.

Suitable for

• Driving and setting blind and solid rivets
• Light forging and shaping of metal
• General workshop striking tasks and assembly work
• Sheet metal repair and bodywork preparatory operations

Key specifications

• Head material: forged steel for impact resistance
• Handle material: wood, 40 cm length for reach and control
• Weight: 2 kg total for effective striking force
• Tool type: riveting/striking hammer suitable for light forging
• Finish: durable machined striking faces to ensure consistent contact

How to use

Hold the wooden handle near the end to maximize leverage and control. Align the hammer face with the rivet or workpiece and deliver measured strikes, allowing the hammer mass to impart force rather than relying solely on arm movement. For riveting, use an appropriate set or anvil beneath the rivet head and strike steadily until the rivet is formed. When performing light forging, use controlled blows and reposition the workpiece as needed to achieve the desired shape. Inspect the head and handle periodically for cracks, looseness or wear and replace the tool if any safety concerns appear.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate eye and hand protection when operating the hammer. Match the hammer weight and striking face size to the rivet or metalwork to avoid damage to the workpiece. Store the tool in a dry place to prevent handle deterioration and check the head-to-handle fit regularly to maintain safe operation.
