Estwing AL-PRO Aluminum Framing Hammer - 14 oz Straight Rip Claw with Smooth Face & Shock Reduction Grip - ALBL

Product Information

There’s one key thing to note about Pro Tool Reviews: We’re all about the professional tool user and tradesman! But when it comes to premium wood or poly-fiber handles paired with titanium heads, it sits comfortably among them as their peer.

There is a magnetic nail starter in the head of the hammer allowing for one handed, fast and accurate nailing. I started the brainstorming off on a light note – by saying that we needed to find out what steel mills in China were making the steel that had gone into the hammers, pry bars etc.I was swinging my 22 oz left handed because my right hand was tired, and developed a ganglion cyst, so I’ve decided to try a lighter hammer. The grip reduces what vibration makes it to my hand and offers a pretty comfortable yet secure grip. The PERMA-CAP™ steel head and interlocking steel claw give this hammer durable strength where it is most needed, and the reduced claw length provides increased leverage.

The features of a framing hammer are pretty basic once you get past the material choices and, for Estwing, the shot head. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. So I hope they took care with that as I’d hate to see the thing develop an internal crack and then come apart. My uncle runs a titanium hammer with fiberglass handle, but he can’t do half what the estwing can do.

estwing's warranty is not a lifetime warranty, however, Estwing fully warrants its hammers (all metal) against failure in normal use, but does not warrant its tools against misuse, abuse or wear.

The AL-Pro in Aluminum provides head speed and power for a lightweight hammer which is additionally equipped with the Estwing shock reduction system.Please check your documentation for full details and any downloads available on the product page itself for further information.
