• General craft work: The locksmith's hammer can also be used when working with wood or plastic to make precise impacts.

Features of a locksmith's hammer 

The locksmith's hammer is characterized by a flat head that offers a large striking surface and is made of high-strength steel. The head size can vary, but the typical locksmith's hammer has a compact, yet heavy construction that ensures targeted force transmission. The handle of the hammer is usually made of ergonomic wood, fiberglass or plastic, which allows for comfortable handling during longer use and at the same time ensures high durability.

Care and handling of the locksmith's hammer 

To ensure the longevity of the locksmith's hammer, the hammer should be checked regularly for cracks in the head and wear in the handle. It is particularly important that the head fits firmly on the handle to ensure that the hammer does not pose a danger when working. After use, the locksmith's hammer should be cleaned of rust and stored in a dry place. A well-maintained locksmith's hammer guarantees precise and safe work results.
