Proto 57-532A Dead Blow Hammer 1.3125 Lb Urethane Head

Product Description

The PROTO 57-532A is a soft-face dead blow hammer designed to deliver controlled impact force without rebound, marring, or damage to finished surfaces. The urethane head absorbs energy on contact, preventing the hammer from bouncing back and reducing operator fatigue during repetitive tasks. The head weighs 1.3125 pounds and measures 2 inches in face diameter, making it suitable for medium-duty assembly, disassembly, and alignment work. The composite handle provides a secure grip and measures 13 inches in overall length. This hammer is used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general mechanical trades wherever a non-marring strike is required.

The PROTO 57-532A suits residential and light commercial service environments. It is commonly used for seating pipe fittings, driving or removing components without scratching sealing surfaces, aligning flanges, and pressing parts into position. The composite handle and urethane head combination makes it well suited for work in tight mechanical rooms or cramped utility spaces where a controlled, bounce-free strike is critical to protecting components and surrounding surfaces.

Key Features

• Urethane head eliminates rebound for controlled, single-strike impact
• 1.3125 lb head weight provides medium-duty striking force without overloading delicate components
• 2 inch face diameter distributes impact across a broad contact area
• 13 inch overall length suits standard-reach service applications
• Composite handle resists corrosion and absorbs vibration
• Non-marring face protects finished and coated surfaces from damage

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose soft-face dead blow hammer for trade and industrial use wherever a non-marring, rebound-free strike is required.

Installation Notes

Inspect the urethane head for cracks or separation before each use. Do not use this hammer to strike hardened steel surfaces, chisels, or punches, as this will damage the soft face. Wear appropriate eye protection when performing any striking operation. Replace the hammer if the head shows signs of deformation that affect strike consistency.
