Hammers & Mallets

Choosing a Hammer or Mallet

For shaping and straightening with reduced surface marking, browse our soft faced hammers and mallets. Nylon, rawhide, plastic, wooden and rubber heads offer different forming options, while brass and dead-blow mallets suit jobs requiring a heavier or more controlled strike.

For specialised metalwork, explore our silversmiths', planishing, embossing and raising hammers, chaser's hammers, ball pein hammers, riveting and watchmakers hammers, and texturing hammers in the categories above. Choose the face shape and weight for the task and support the work on a suitable surface.

Bench Blocks, Anvils and Forming Mandrels

Use a bench block for flat support, an anvil for general bench work, stakes and anvils for curved forming, or ring and bezel mandrels for rounding and shaping curved work. Keep striking faces and supporting surfaces clean and smooth to help avoid unwanted marks.

Replacement Faces and Handles

See our hammer spare parts for replacement faces and handles for compatible models. Check the part dimensions and product details to match the replacement to your hammer.
