Copper Hammers

The Hammer Source carries a complete line of Copper Hammers from various top-quality manufacturers. Copper Hammers range in size from 1/2 ounce to 20 lbs. 

Some hammer heads are cast and some are extruded. The extruded heads are typically a bit harder since the process compacts and aligns the copper grain. Their dimensions are a bit more precise as well. Our copper Hammers come with Fiberglass, Wood, Plastic or Steel handles and the shapes vary from cylindrical, barrel and square-shaped. Metal hardness comparisons can be seen here.

Generally, copper is considered to be non-sparking. However, The Hammer Source does not guarantee any hammer to be non-sparking. Hammers can pick up other materials during use and those materials, like iron or steel, can be imbedded in the copper and cause sparks. Soft metal hammers like Copper, Aluminum and Brass should be reground and dressed before each use in a volatile environment.

In addition to solid head hammers, we also have available solid iron heads with copper (and rawhide) faces. They can be found on our Soft Face Hammer category, click on this link:  Iron head hammer with copper faces
