ATLAS engineer's hammer handle made of hickory wood for a 500-gram engineer's hammer, with head dimensions of 15.5 x 26.5 mm and a length of 32 cm. Because of the oval shape of the handle, the hammer head is always aligned 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 DIN5111 standards.
Hickory is a heavy, hard American wood species that is even stronger than ash wood. Hickory wood is exceptionally tough, shock-resistant, and resilient. The ATLAS hickory handle is also waxed with plant-based carnauba. This allows the wood to breathe, prevents it from absorbing water or dirt, and helps it retain its beautiful natural color. The 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, for the most part, manufactured in the Netherlands in an energy-neutral way and are available in different lengths and versions.
