Thor 312 Copper Hammer Size 2

Excellent real power hammer with a ‘dead blow’ hit that helps preserve the object at the hammers expense. I had to release seized conical lug nuts on the wheels of a 70 year old Willys Jeep that were over tightened into damaged holes. Impact sockets were used to soften the steel wheels grip on the mating faces of the nuts. Excellent job and nothing was broken

Good quality and a nice strong shank

Well made

Replacement for a v v old copper hammer.I had not realised how heavy this was going to be. Might have bought the size 1 had I'd known ?For comparison, photo shows the 4 hammers I use in my workshop. They weigh:3.5 oz pin hammer - 145g12 oz hammer - 434gOx rubber mallet - 719gThor copper mallet - 1,293gMostly used to separate Morse tapered stuff - and it certainly will be well capable of that !

Thor hammers have been around for years, not the cheepest but they are best and very much worth every penny.

Good reliable tool . Great for shocking screws /bolts without damaging surfaces

Brilliant hammer - I’ve had this a while now and wasn’t even going to get it, I was going to get the size 4 but ended up buying this as it was cheaper, this size 3 is enough to beat out most of the HGV track rods and all other jobs that require a softer face (not talking about the apprentice) I have no doubt this hammer will out live me.It’s not too heavy and you can have many strikes without getting tired, the faces are soft but very durable and I don’t think I will ever need a new handle, this one is strong and has a nice feel to it.I’ve not been easy on this size 3 and it’s been perfect

This is just what I wanted. Typical Thor quality (i.e. excellent) and ideal for driving tent pegs into hard ground. Much smaller that the rubber mallet I have previously used and the copper heads prevent damage to steel and aluminium tent pegs. The really good thing about this style of hammer is that all the energy goes in to the item you strike and none is wasted as there is no rebound.
