This 450g roughneck® gorilla® v series framing hammer combines a 16oz head weight with advanced shock reduction technology, making it ideal for framing work and general carpentry tasks. The 450g total weight provides an excellent balance between striking power and manoeuvrability, reducing fatigue during extended use. The drop forged, hardened and tempered steel construction ensures exceptional durability, whilst the v shock twin beam girder shaft acts as a damper to reduce shock and vibration transmission. The reduced shaft weight transfers the centre of gravity towards the head for improved balance and control. The 2 inch timber claw is perfect for manipulating constructional timber, whilst the magnetic nail holder enables effortless nail starting, particularly useful in awkward positions. The air cushioned grip provides superior comfort and further vibration control, making this hammer suitable for prolonged use on site. The mini claw allows embedded nails to be removed with ease, and the lanyard hole ensures safe tethering when working at height.
