Garland 40001 Dead Blow Hammer 16 Oz Polyurethane 10 in

Product Description

The GARLAND 40001 is a 16 oz dead blow hammer designed to deliver controlled, rebound-free strikes in applications where marring or surface damage is a concern. The head and handle are both constructed from polyurethane, providing a soft hardness rating that absorbs impact energy and prevents the hammer from bouncing back after contact. With a 1.5-inch face diameter and an overall length of 10 inches, this hammer is sized for close-quarters work and controlled precision driving. It is used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general trade professionals who need a non-marring striking tool during assembly, disassembly, and component seating tasks.

This dead blow hammer suits residential and commercial trade applications where metal surfaces, fittings, or components must be driven or adjusted without causing damage. The polyurethane construction resists abrasion and offers self-healing properties, meaning minor surface cuts and compressions on the head tend to close over time. The compact 10-inch overall length makes it practical in tight mechanical spaces such as equipment rooms, panel enclosures, and utility chases where a full-size mallet would be difficult to swing.

Key Features

• 16 oz head weight for controlled, moderate-force striking
• Polyurethane head and handle construction resists abrasion and marring
• 1.5-inch face diameter for targeted contact on fittings and components
• Soft hardness rating minimizes rebound and surface damage

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose dead blow hammer for trade use across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical installation and service work where a non-marring striking tool is required.

Installation Notes

A licensed or qualified trade professional should select striking tools appropriate to the force requirements of the task. Always inspect the hammer head for cracks or separation before use. Store away from prolonged direct sunlight and extreme heat, as polyurethane materials can degrade under sustained UV or thermal exposure. Do not use this hammer for tasks requiring metal-to-metal strikes or demolition-force impacts.
