Westward non-sparking hammers are designed to drive wedges and posts, as well as perform heavy demolition jobs in construction sites, mines and fire rescue services. These hammers feature a rubber over-moulded spring steel handle to absorb the force of an impact and withstand overstrikes without cracking or breaking. The non-sparking attributes make these units an ideal choice for working in highly flammable sites; like oil refineries or gas plants. These sledgehammers further come equipped with a beryllium-copper alloy / copper head providing a maximum striking area while balancing the movement. Choose from a wide range of these non-sparking sledgehammers, available in orange-grey and orange-black handle colours on Raptor Supplies.
The vulcanised rubber offers excellent shock-absorbing attributes while withstanding high impact forces & abrasion caused by striking the hammer head against different surfaces. The flexible material improves durability and provides excellent wear & tear resistance when combined with steel.
A fibreglass handle offers more rigidity and has a higher shelf life than standard wooden handles. Also, it is unaffected by fungus, termites or dry rot.
The handle has a ribbed grip that features raised ridges or bumps along its surface. These ridges provide a secure and comfortable grip, allowing a better hold on the hammer while reducing fatigue during hammering.
