Wilton 20636 Bash Sledge Hammer 6 Lb 36 Inch

Product Description

The WILTON 20636 is a BASH Sledge Hammer built for heavy-duty trade and industrial applications where standard hammers fail. The head is drop forged to 46 HRC hardness and finished in a high-visibility color for quick identification on busy job sites. A steel core runs through the handle, eliminating breakage during overstrikes — a common failure point on fiberglass and wood-handle sledges. At 6 pounds with a 36-inch handle, this tool delivers serious striking power for demolition, driving stakes, breaking concrete, and setting heavy fasteners. It is designed for professional tradespeople who cannot afford tool failure mid-task.

The 20636 suits contractors, ironworkers, plumbers, electricians, and general construction professionals working in residential and commercial settings. The 36-inch handle length provides full-swing leverage for high-force applications including breaking up masonry, driving ground rods, and demolition work. The anti-vibe neck reduces vibration transfer to the user during repeated strikes, making it appropriate for extended work sessions. A lanyard hole allows tool tethering for elevated or safety-critical work environments.

Installation Notes

Inspect the head-to-handle connection before each use to confirm the safety plate and steel core are undamaged. Wear ANSI-rated eye protection and appropriate PPE when striking masonry, concrete, or hardened fasteners. Use the lanyard hole when working at height to prevent dropped-tool hazards. Do not use as a pry bar or strike tool against hardened steel surfaces not rated for sledge impact.
