Engineer’s hammer handle ATLAS made of hickory for a 400 gram engineer’s hammer, with head size 14 x 24 mm and a length of 31 cm. Due to the oval shape of the handle, the hammer head always sits in the correct striking direction. For mounting the handle, a metal hammer wedge no. 3 with item 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. 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 beautiful light color. Waxing provides a longer service life and a pleasantly smooth handle, helping prevent blisters. In addition, plant-based waxing of handles is better for the environment than using varnish or paraffin.
ATLAS hickory hammer handles are manufactured, for the most part, energy-neutral in the Netherlands and are available in various lengths and versions.
