Sheet-metal setting hammer

The Malco SH3 is a one-piece steel setting hammer built for sheet-metal work. Its 18 oz head and perpendicular flat blade concentrate force for precise forming and planishing. The leather grip is lacquer-coated for corrosion resistance and moulds to the hand over time. Overall length is 12 in.

Trades needing controlled forming blows

Suits sheet-metal fabricators, HVAC installers and restoration specialists who want a single, corrosion-resistant tool for layout and finishing. Not suited for heavy chipping, demolition or driving large fasteners. Users who need a replaceable handle or a dead-blow action should look at a different design.

One-piece steel construction

The hammer is forged as a single steel unit with no replaceable handle. This eliminates joint loosening but means the entire tool must be replaced if the grip wears out. The leather wrap is protected by a durable lacquer coating. Weight is 6.9.
