9 lb. Sledge Dead Blow Hammer

Things great to have but probably overkill. We cheer when the 6ft 330 pound ball up muscle asks to use it on a dually. Well made and has a hardness to it that feels structurally able.

Excellent hammer I use it for removing the tires from the vehicles that don’t want to come off. It’s very durable and it won’t mark ruin the rim.

This is actually a really good size, my background is heavy duty diesel mechanic and these work really well. A bit of extra horse power.

IVE BEEN USING CAPRI TOOLS FOR MANY YEARS IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY + AROUND THE HOUSE. TERRIFIC TOOL, + AT A VERY ATTRACTIVE PRICE. GOD BLESS & STAY SAFE. TMP.

Its quality a previous reviewer complained of small holes in the rubber... its a dead blow hammer not a work of art my gosh who cares u can hardly see them!!! As for the hammer it is great with the lead shot in the center it transfers the energy all to the hit object with almost no bounce back its almost like a instant double hit! Still i am a machinist and i use it to hit work pieces into my vise jaws to sit flat on my parallels.. it works but even with the huge 4lber i got u need to really hit it hard. I usually use a rawhide and that actually requires much less force to get it to hit the parallels! Though once i get it down and start to have issues with bounce and cant get both parallels tight the dead blow comes into its own. Its not the end all be allhammer its a tool that is useful when i need it. Other great uses *brake rotors rusty beat em off.. *capentry tonge and grove * anything where a hammer is needed but it is critical not to mark it up or damage it! This is great!! For a machinist i still like the rawhide better but most agree that a olastic type or nylon hammer works best. Stanley makes a orange obe that worjs excellent. This does work though

I purchased this to use building a block retaining wall. I was a little apprehensive about how well it would hold up to heavy use but I am pleased to report it survived building 100' of wall, and I was really pounding the bottom blocks to set them into the base material. It's the perfect size and weight for this type of work and shows little wear. It will be put back to use next spring when I start phase II. I would highly recommend this product.

Great tool worked wonderfully, I'm very satisfied. Well made.

Nice quality.

Little smaller than I had hoped for, but the weight and dimensions are accurate. Good quality handle, good feel and great striking force for a smaller hammer. Brilliant.

I have used this 9 pound hammer to install a flywheeel on a 150 ton Cincinnati break press, and on several other very large couplings onto shafts. It moved the flywheel 1/8" at a time with zero bounce. Also a few good swings seating a 400 pound peice of hardox 500 into a fixture with rough torch cut ends. I have to say I am very impressed with this hammer so far. Plastic is definitely tough and has no marks on either the components or the hammers face. Definitely high impact plastic vs the cheaper soft rubber dead blows. Also it does not bouce back. Its worth mentioning the couplings were heated for a 0.0015" interference fit. No damage to plastic from heated impact either. Not sure if this was heat resistant in its descriptions but all and all I absolutely recommend this to anyone in the trades. Great quality tool. If this hammer broke tomorrow it already paid for itself at only 100 bucks and I'd order another same day. I have used similar $400 hammers of similar weight and cannot see any difference in quality.

PRODUCT WAS GOOD

All around good hammer. Whatever you use it for it’s a well built dead blow

Not sure if I got a dud or not. Got the 12 lb model, handle bent from the first few heavy blows I gave it. Have since returned it. Disappointed for the price I paid.
