Nylon-Faced Hammers

Two Types of Faces: Rawhide and Nylon
Rawhide or Nylon Faced Hammers are a necessity for
any electrical repair shop or machine shop. Carefully
balanced, they permit striking a controlled and powerful
blow. Hammers can be purchased with either Rawhide
or Nylon Faces in malleable iron heads. Handles are
high-grade hickory.
Rawhide Faces — Made of top-grade water-buffalo
hide, unsurpassed for resiliency and ability to transmit
hard effective blows without damage to delicate surfaces;
will not chip or shear, are non-sparking, and
stand up under severe conditions.
Nylon Faces — The long-wearing tough qualities of
Nylon make these faces very practical where an allaround
soft-faced hammer is needed. They will not chip
or mushroom, are resistant to oil, gasoline, etc., and are
virtually indestructible.
Anyone can change the faces of these Hammers in a
matter of seconds. It is necessary only to loosen the
large nut under the head, slide the bottom half of the
head down, and the faces are easily removed and
replaced. When the nut is tightened, the jaws hold the
faces in a vise-like grip.
Note — Diameters shown for Nylon Faces are the cavities
into which the Faces fit. Striking surfaces are 14”
