Overview

Six pounds of alloy steel head paired with a rubber handle makes the Wilton 20616 a hammer for heavy striking work, not everyday carpentry.

At 6 pounds, this sits well above a standard claw or framing hammer, more in line with a small sledge or engineer's hammer meant for driving stakes, breaking up material, or heavy striking work. The rubber handle is built to absorb some shock from repeated swings, worth noting given the head weight. Wilton's tool line covers vises and striking tools, and this hammer fits the heavier end of that catalog.

  • 6 pound weight
  • Alloy steel head
  • Rubber handle
  • Sold as a single hammer

Who it's for

Anyone needing a heavy striking tool for demolition, stake driving, or driving chisels and punches, where a lightweight hammer will not deliver enough force. Not the right pick for general household or carpentry hammering, where a lighter claw hammer is easier to control.

Strengths and trade-offs

Drawn from this product's published specifications.

Performance notes

The 6 pound alloy steel head delivers substantially more force per swing than a standard hammer, and the rubber handle helps absorb the added shock that comes with a head this heavy over repeated use.
