The Groz Sledge Hammers with Hickory Wood Handles are the ultimate choice for heavy demolition and hammering applications. The rugged steel heads are forged from fine-grained special steel and induction-hardened 50-58 HRC for unmatched durability. The genuine hickory wood handles manufactured from the strongest imported hickory provide high-energy transfer and vibration absorption and offer a balanced and controlled swing, reducing user fatigue. A reinforcing collar at the base of the head ensures protection against overstrike damage. The Groz Hickory Wood Handle Sledge Hammers conform to BS 876, SANS 387: 2014, and ANSI standards. These hammers are used for driving stakes, rebar work, stone and concrete fracturing, fence post installation, railroad tasks, metal forming, bolt sets, and demolition jobs.
