Crescent CHSFRS22-06 Steel Framing Hammer Ripping Claw

Product Description

The CRESCENT CHSFRS22-06 is a steel framing hammer built for structural carpentry and rough framing work. The head is constructed from alloy steel with a lacquer finish and a smooth, polished striking face. The ripping claw is designed for pulling nails and breaking apart framed assemblies without a separate pry tool. At 1.375 pounds of head weight, the CHSFRS22-06 delivers controlled swing force for driving framing nails into dimensional lumber. The handle is alloy steel with an integrated grip for secure handling during repetitive striking. This hammer is suited for professional framers, general contractors, and skilled tradespeople working on residential and light commercial framing projects.

The CHSFRS22-06 is used in wood-frame construction where consistent nail driving and structural demolition are both required. The ripping claw configuration makes it effective during rough framing stages when workers frequently need to reposition or remove structural members. It is appropriate for use with common framing nails in standard dimensional lumber applications. At 16 inches in overall length, it provides adequate swing leverage for productive framing work on wall, floor, and roof assemblies.
