Schmith rubber hammers - tools for delicate jobs
Rubber hammers, unlike carpentry hammers or locksmith hammers, are not used for driving nails, as they are not equipped with hard metal heads. Rubber hammers have unique heads, made of tough and flexible rubber, designed for delicate work and beating surfaces that would be easily damaged with standard hammers.
The rubber head does not leave dents, scratches or impact marks on the surface being worked on, thanks to the distribution of impact force. They are used when working with delicate materials such as soft woods, ceramics, tiles, or soft metals such as aluminum or copper. Rubber hammers are commonly used by carpenters, parquet workers, tile setters, sheet metal workers and do-it-yourselfers.
