Stanley 51-163 Smooth Face Hammer 16 Oz Anti-vibration

Product Description

The STANLEY 51-163 is a 16-ounce smooth-face framing hammer designed for nailing tasks in residential and light commercial construction. It features an anti-vibration design that reduces shock and fatigue transmitted to the hand and arm during repeated striking. The smooth face delivers clean nail sets without marring the work surface. Built for daily jobsite use, this hammer is suited for framers, finish carpenters, and general contractors who drive nails frequently throughout the workday.

This hammer fits standard framing and rough carpentry applications including wall framing, sheathing, and decking. The 16-ounce head weight is a common choice for general nailing work where a balance of driving power and swing control is needed. It is appropriate for both new construction and renovation projects. Trade professionals and experienced DIYers working in wood-frame construction will find this head weight practical across a wide range of fastener sizes.
