Riveting & Chisel Work — One-Piece All-Steel Bench Hammer, 2-1/2 × 0.40 Inch Head
For riveting, chisel work and forming where a wood-handled hammer is the weak link. Forged from a single piece of steel, there is no head-to-handle joint to work loose under load — the failure point that eventually catches up with any hard-driven bench hammer.
The head measures 2-1/2" × 0.40" and carries a flat face for striking alongside a cross-pein for spreading rivets and forming. A knurled section on the handle keeps the grip secure when hands are moving fast, and the all-steel build transfers force directly into the blow. It suits jewellers, silversmiths and blacksmiths, and holds its own in light engineering work besides.
- Solid one-piece steel construction eliminates the risk of head-handle separation under load.
- Dual-face head features a flat face for striking and a cross-pein for riveting and forming.
- Knurled handle section provides a secure, non-slip grip during heavy or sustained striking.
- Forged entirely from steel for maximum durability and direct force transfer.
Who it's for
An essential tool for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and blacksmiths who require a robust hammer for riveting and forming. Its solid build also makes it suitable for light engineering and metalworking tasks where a traditional hammer handle is not favoured.
