Engineer's hammer handle ATLAS made of hickory wood 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 DIN5111 standards.
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 the plant-based Carnauba. This ensures that the wood can breathe, does not absorb water or dirt, and retains its beautiful natural color. The waxing provides a longer service life and a pleasantly smooth handle, helping to 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 designs.
