Hammers

A hammer is a tool, most often a hand tool, consisting of a weighted "head" fixed to a long handle that is swung to deliver an impact to a small area of an object. This can be, for example, to drive nails into wood, to shape metal (as with a forge), or to crush rock.

Varieties of Hammers and Their Functions Hammers stand as ubiquitous tools found in most households or toolkits, spanning from conventional designs to specialized forms tailored for specific tasks. Generally consisting of a handle, head, and face, these tools vary in composition and configuration, some incorporating additional features such as grips, claws, or hooks. Common hammer types include:

1. Ball Pein Hammer: Characterized by a rounded head and typically fashioned with wooden handles, these hammers are commonly employed for riveting or shaping metal.
2. Claw Hammer: Sporting a flat face on one end of the head and a claw-shaped appendage on the other, these hammers excel at removing and leveraging out nails.
3. Lump Hammer: Also recognized as a club hammer, these tools resemble sledgehammers but feature shorter handles, making them ideal for light demolition tasks.
4. Mallet: Engineered to deliver forceful blows without causing harm to materials or users, mallets come in various materials, offering soft and hard faces such as rubber, brass, and steel.
