Designed for heavy-duty demolition, construction, and stake driving, this tool combines professional-grade performance with ergonomic comfort, making it a top choice for demanding projects. ## Description The Estwing Sledge Hammer is perfect for driving stakes and rebar, shattering stone and concrete, and performing heavy demolition or industrial construction projects. Designed and built for heavy-duty use, this hammer features a forged alloy steel head with striking ends hardened to 50-55 HRC. It can withstand years of repeated impacts without deforming. The head is mounted to a fibreglass handle, double injected for increased strength and durability. A textured rubber overlay on the handle provides a comfortable, ergonomic, and secure grip in both grip positions while also helping to dampen vibrations. Below the striking head the handle and rubber overlay are thicker to provide increased overstrike protection to prevent damage from missed hits. The Estwing Sledge Hammer Fibreglass Handle 3.6kg (8 lb). Review: Discovered Estwing on desertcart and have begun regularly buying their products as a result of their excellent performance and value. Bought this sledge to replace a traditional, hickory-handle, sledgehammer that finally splintered into pieces after years of use. The Estwing 8 lb. sledge has just been fantastic. We are using this hammer to split heavy oak for a wood stove and the hammer is a noticeable improvement after years of using a hickory handle, also with an 8 lb. head. The Estwing transfers less force/vibration to the hand, seems to require less work/force to split the >8" rounds, and when there are misses and wedge strikes, while the rubber around the sledge head gets torn up, the fiberglass handle underneathe just sheds the hits, so we expect to have this hammer for many, many years, whereas a hickory handle would have likely already been destroyed. Finally, the cost of one of these Estwing hammers off desertcart is about $10.00 cheaper, minimum, compared to our local retailer's offerings. And free shipping. That's incredible. No idea how those big box home improvement stores manage to stay open. And all of our Estwing tools were not made in China. Another huge plus.
