Ball Peen Hammer
A ball-peen hammer, also known as a machinist's hammer, is a type of peening hammer used in metalworking. It has two heads, one flat and the other, called the peen, rounded.
Blacksmith Hammer (cross peen)
A cross peen hammer is a hammer used by blacksmiths to complete metal work. The wedge-shaped end of the hammer allows you to make the metal fuller when used with heat. The main functions of a cross peen hammer is forging and riveting.
Dead Blow Hammer
A dead blow hammer is a specialized mallet helpful in minimizing damage to the struck surface and in limiting peak striking force, with minimal elastic rebound from the struck surface.
Ripping Hammer
A hammer with a curved claw provides leverage for pulling nails. A rip (straight claw) hammer is often the choice of professionals because it is usually a slightly heftier tool that is used to rip apart wood that has been nailed together.
Rubber Mallet
A rubber mallet is a general use tool which can be used for many different jobs. They are much lighter and cheaper than metal mallets and are much safer to use. A rubber mallet is the most commonly used for impacting on another object.
Engineers Hammer
An engineer's hammer, also known as drilling hammer or a baby sledge hammer, is a tool used for heavy hammering or demolition work. An engineer's hammer weighs from one to five pounds. It has handle that it about 8 inches long - much shorter than that of a normal sledge hammer - made of wood, fiberglass, or steel.
Nail Hammer
Is a tool primarily used for driving nails into, or pulling nails from, some other object. It is not suitable for heavy hammering on metal surfaces (such as in machining work), as the steel of its head is somewhat brittle.
Plastic Mallet
It is a tool of preference for wood workers using chisels with plastic, metal, or wooden handles, as they give a softened strike with a positive drive. It is the most commonly used mallet. Can bang wood without leaving dents.
Tack Hammer
Lightweight hammer with two faces; smaller face is magnetized to hold/insert tacks, the larger face used to seat them
Brass Hammer
They are used for hitting things made of steel without denting and scratching them up, they are also used in areas where a spark generated by the strike of steel on steel could cause a spark, and potentially an explosion. Fairly small brass hammers are used by gunsmiths to tap pins into place of for very close fitting.
Wood Mallet
Wooden mallets are usually used in carpentry to knock wooden pieces together, or to drive dowels or chisels. A wooden mallet will not deform the striking end of a metal tool, as most metal hammers would. It is also used to reduce the force driving the cutting edge of a chisel, giving better control.
