Engineer's hammer handle ATLAS made of hickory for a 600-gram engineer's hammer, with head size 16.5 x 28 mm and length 33 cm. Due to the oval shape of the handle, the hammer head is always in the correct striking direction. For mounting the handle, a metal hammer wedge no. 3 with article number 651425 is recommended.
This ATLAS hammer handle complies with the DIN5111 standard.
hickory is a heavy and hard American wood species that is even stronger than ash wood. Hickory wood is particularly tough, shock-resistant and resilient. The ATLAS hickory handle is also waxed with plant-based carnauba. This ensures that the wood can breathe, does not absorb water or dirt, and retains its attractive pale natural color. Waxing provides a longer lifespan and a pleasantly smooth handle, which helps prevent blisters. Moreover, waxing handles with a plant-based wax is better for the environment than using varnish or paraffin.
ATLAS hickory hammer handles are, for the most part, manufactured energy-neutrally in the Netherlands and are available in various lengths and versions.
