Milwaukee Steel Curved Claw Hammer 20oz / 570g (4932478656)

Description

Genuine Milwaukee · Part no. 4932478656

A 20oz (570g) steel curved claw hammer from Milwaukee, part 4932478656, for nails and woodwork around the garage: building a workbench, boarding a loft, fixing battens or pulling old nails out of timber. The curved claw levers nails out with less damage to the wood, and a magnet in the head holds a nail to start it one-handed.

Good to know

• Should I use it on car parts? No. A hard steel face marks and mushrooms steel parts; for knocking a hub, bearing or drift, use a soft-faced copper, brass or dead-blow hammer.
• Can I prise with it? The I-beam handle is built to resist bending when you lever with the claw, so pulling nails and splitting nailed boards apart is fine. Heavier levering on a car needs a pry bar.
• How do I start a nail one-handed? Sit the nail in the magnetic starter on the head, point outwards, set it into the mark with one swing, then carry on with the face.

Which one?

For car work, the soft-faced Thor Copper Hammer – Size 2 UK 2 (THO312) or the Carlyle Brass Hammer – Fiberglass Handle – 10in – 1 lb (HFHBR110) won't mark steel parts.
