Description

Use the tools that work the best for the job at hand and choose the tool that will best get the job done quickly and effectively. I was used to swinging 8-12 lb hammers and figured the 20 wouldn't be that much different and I could not have been more wrong. I preferred the square design over the tapered heads because if you were banging 2x4 stakes in the ground you could use the square head sideways and it wouldn't split the wood so easily as it hit the whole flat surface of the stake. The head will not become loose, as steel bars are locked with a steel plate on top of the hammerhead, ensuring the head will never get dislodged. If I had to use a tapered head because of restrictions I could do ok but I developed a feel for the square heads and could maintain accuracy better with them.

I could probably swing this thing at concrete all day for a year and it'd look brand new at the end of it. Wilton Tools 22030 BASH sledge hammer is designed for use in demolition, construction and heavy-duty tasks. This subreddit is temporarily private as part of a joint protest to Reddit's recent API changes, which breaks third-party apps and moderation tools, effectively forcing users to use the official Reddit app. A bigger guy may prefer a bigger hammer but I could swing that thing all day knocking pins out of excavator booms over head or driving bull pricks through hard pan at ground level. This year I'm clearing an area for a shed, and decided to get something a little bigger to (hopefully) break things up a little faster and with fewer hits.I owned a 10 pounder when I was a six-two, 275-pound weightlifter, and swinging that thing from over my shoulder for more than ten minutes forced me to take a long break a catch my breath. This 20 lb sledge hammer has a long handle and a large flat head to deliver powerful blows to concrete, wood and steel.

I laughed and handed it to my wife (who is much smaller) and she could barely lift it over her shoulder. At the checkout you are able to see your text for each item please check they are correct and make any amendments necessary before completing your purchase. I would definitely not recommend it for anyone who is not either above average strength or using an assist. I'm pretty sure I would tire of swinging a 20lbs in around 10 or fewer swings, and I work in a fairly physical job.We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. No matter how much care you take, incorrectly hitting the hammer on the handle instead of the head cannot be avoided. If you are a stronger person, someone who does manual labor a lot, and you find that you are breaking stone/concrete or driving post in to permafrost ground, in an area where accuracy is not important, then you might want to increase the weight to get done quicker. Having said that, and not knowing what your house/property looks like, if you find you are having to take a bunch of wacks using the 8 lb or ten lb hammers, you might find going up in weight to be useful. An 8 and 16 sounds like a good compliment, or if you and/or the material you are working with are large, a ten and a twenty.

Remember, force equals mass times acceleration and continued use of higher mass often leads to forced acceleration (to get the job done and let your muscles rest). Also I find that using sledge hammers with a fiber glass handle to be better in general then wooden handles.

Being 40 and not quite the shape I was once in, I took a few more breaks than I expected due to the weight of heaving this hammer. I am looking to replace a couple of China no name sledge hammers that I sent off to the auction the other day.I have 2 of the Bash 20's at work for hitting some enormous jacking bolts to adjust some very large support rollers. Standard Industrial grade Sledge Hammers are suited to all general purpose heavy striking applications.
