Oval Atlas sledgehammer handle made of strong hickory wood
Atlas sledgehammer handle made of hickory wood, with head size 40 x 26 mm and length 90 cm, suitable for 3-kilo sledgehammers. For mounting the handle, a metal hammer wedge no. 4A with item number 651455 is recommended.
The oval shape of the handle keeps the hammer head always aligned in the correct striking direction.
Hickory is a heavy and hard American wood species that is even stronger than ash wood. Hickory wood is exceptionally tough, shock-resistant, and resilient. The Atlas sledgehammer handle is also waxed with plant-based Carnauba. This allows the wood to breathe, prevents it from absorbing water or dirt, and preserves its beautiful natural color. Waxing ensures a longer service life and a pleasantly smooth handle, helping to prevent blisters. In addition, waxing handles with plant-based wax is better for the environment than using varnish or paraffin.
Atlas hickory sledgehammer handles are, for the most part, manufactured carbon-neutrally in the Netherlands and are available in various versions.
