Apex 82253 Ball Pein Hammer Alloy Steel Fiberglass Handle

Product Description

The APEX 82253 is a ball pein hammer built for general-purpose metalworking, riveting, and shaping tasks. The head is drop-forged from alloy steel and fully polished for durability and a clean striking surface. An impact-resistant fiberglass handle absorbs vibration and resists cracking under heavy use. An ergonomic cushioned grip reduces fatigue during extended work. At 2.62 pounds total weight and 16 inches in length, it delivers solid control for mechanics, machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians across a wide range of shop and field applications.

This hammer is suited for residential and commercial maintenance environments, fabrication shops, and general trade use. It handles tasks such as setting rivets, shaping metal stock, striking punches and chisels, and light demolition work. The combination of a polished alloy steel head and a fiberglass handle makes it a reliable everyday tool for professionals and experienced DIYers who need consistent performance from their hand tools.

Installation Notes
