Stanley 51-742 16-Ounce Antivibe Rip Claw Nail Hammer

by Stanley

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

This 13-1/4"" long, 16 oz. Antivibe Nail Hammer has a rip claw and a polished steel head. It is designed to reduce exposure to vibrational energy generated during repetitive hammering impacts to the work-piece. The steel head is precision balanced for a superior swing while the patented head-to-handle assembly increases safety. Its grip is cushioned for comfort and is an ideal diameter and shape to allow lower grip force to control the hammer. The over-molded, chemically resistant, jacket provides overstrike protection.

This review is from: Stanley 51-742 16-Ounce Antivibe Rip Claw Nail Hammer (Tools & Home Improvement)

I saw a special on TV that talked about tool manufactureing and this was one of the products they showed. The showed how it was designed to minimize vibrations transmitted to the tool users hand and how they measured it to make sure it really worked. They also showed the manufacturing process. Anyway, I bought one and it really does reduce the vibration substantially. Up until now I have always bought wood handled hammers just because of the vibration and shock problems with metal handled hammers. This one seems to have solved that problem.
