    Got one, used it for several months and the claw snapped off pulling out a bang in or nail pin. Wiha didn’t support the hammer return or replacement. Went with ideal after that. Great hammer so far.

    I bought this about two years back and use it basically all the time, barely use my regular hammer now and am now the king of awkward clipping :) and red is my favourite colour, that's the main point...use it for spacing clips too most times

    Every Electrician I know uses their pliers as their hammer.

    Great video. Different hammers are designed for different trades, certain weights/ head angle/ claw or ball types ( apart from a general hammer). I'm a licenced plumber and electrician. I have a bricklayers hammer because I find the chisel handy for digging dirt and chipping brick and concrete.
    I have a separate mini crowbar for pulling nails and prising.
    Cheers!

    Is that hammer solid metal throughout, like an estwing, with the handle coated? Or is the handle hollow tube and affixed to the head?

  • @oyleyhands1332
    @oyleyhands1332 3 роки тому +3

    Had one for a few years now but mine is under the brand name Hulfators and the handle is black.
    Strange how the Hulfators one is sold as a 500g hammer and the Wera is sold as a 300g hammer..pretty sure they are just the same..I do have both to compare.
    They are spot on as an electricians hammer though.

    hello, I think you should have put a piece of " rubber " sheet behind the hammer, when you were levering that thing off a tiled wall, unless it does not matter if they get damaged. and bashing in rawl plugs, try tapping them in, past the thickness of the tile, and it will not be prone to cracking the tile, when a tapered screw get home.
    nobody is born knowing any thing, but experience, or pasased on knowlegde will help.

    Cable clips must be WAY easier to drive than Romax staples or hanging nail-on boxes. I’ll stick with my 18oz (510g) Klein hammer. It doesn’t fit in my Veto but I wouldn’t be without it.

      Plastic clips with one single galvanized nail. They come in different shapes for different shapes of cables, for round cables or the british twin-and-earth which is more flattened.

    I use a Estwing 15oz framing hammer, it has a similar shape.
    This looks like it would be easier to wield under a kitchen cabinet than your average “knocking spanner”, when clipping under cupboard lights, or such in similar confined spaces.

    UA-cam this is why I don't watch this channel stop recommending it to me now I want this hammer. I do have to say I went out and got a couple of those shorty hammers they are wonderful and I have barely used them. PS a little tip the ball peen hammers if that's the right name with the round ball instead of the claw work really good for knocking out Knockouts in u.s. boxes!

    Just saw these and im considering one. I use a bacho 12" electricians tote, and my normal hammer (just a standard 16oz £10 hammer) flops about when its in the top section and when its in the bottom after removing the screwbox that comes with the bag it bulges out the side making it hard to zip up. But these look quite interesting

    Let's reinvent the wheel?... lol..looks good, but a hammer is a hammer really? I never hit rawl plugs with the metal part, that can crack tiles. The end of my "normal hammer" does the same thing. The flat cut out on the head seems a good idea, but is it really gonna be used that much? even the flatter curve for getting clips out in tight spaces?...you didn't really need that feature to remove the clips in your demo Jordan?... a pry bar does the same thing. are you being sponsored dude? ;-) I'm not liking these sponsored videos. Keep it real Jordan, your'e better than than that. No offence.:-)
