6 lb Blacksmith Hammer for Metalwork

The Ampco H-702FG Blacksmith Hammer weighs 6 lb and measures 15 inches overall. Its head is forged from nickel aluminium bronze, a non-sparking and corrosion-resistant alloy suited to hazardous environments. A fiberglass handle resists chemicals and moisture while providing a non-slip grip for controlled strikes.

Suited to foundry and maintenance crews

This hammer fits professionals who need a non-sparking striking tool for work around flammable vapours or corrosive substances. It is not intended for general carpentry or demolition where a standard steel sledge would be more economical. Buyers requiring a lighter one-handed engineer hammer should consider a different weight class.

Fiberglass handle and alloy head change the use case

The fiberglass shaft eliminates the splintering and conductivity risks of wooden handles in wet or chemical-heavy settings. The nickel aluminium bronze head prevents spark generation on ferrous surfaces, allowing safe use in refineries, mines and chemical plants where ordinary steel tools are prohibited.

Questions about this item

What protective gear do I need before swinging the 6 lb head?

Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. The non-sparking nickel aluminium bronze head still throws scale and makes loud impact noise.

Will the 15" fiberglass handle fit my existing hammer rack?

The 15" overall length matches standard engineer-hammer slots. The fiberglass resists chemicals and moisture, so it will not swell or corrode in the rack.

How do I confirm the non-sparking property is still effective after use?

Strike a piece of mild steel in a dark area. No visible sparks means the nickel aluminium bronze head retains its non-sparking characteristic.
