How to choose the right hammer for your DIY projects?

A hammer is an essential tool for any DIY enthusiast, but not every hammer is suited to all projects. When tackling DIY projects, a hammer becomes indispensable. Different types of hammers serve specific functions, making work easier and delivering better results. In this blog, we’ll explore the hammers available in the POPAR selection and how to choose the right tool based on your needs.

Carpenter’s hammer

A carpenter’s hammer is a versatile tool, ideal for most home repairs. Its key feature is a metal head with a classic hammer face on one side for driving nails and a claw on the other for nail removal. This hammer is indispensable for furniture assembly, framing, and any project that requires nailing or nail removal.

Example: When repairing a wooden fence or assembling shelves, a carpenter’s hammer will allow you to drive and remove nails quickly and easily.


Rubber hammer

The rubber hammer has a soft head that prevents damage to delicate materials like tiles, glass, or sensitive wood surfaces. It is ideal for furniture assembly, tile installation, or laying flooring, where you need to apply force without risking material damage.

Example: When laying tiles, you can gently tap tiles into place and adjust them to the right height with a rubber hammer, without risking cracks or chips.

Zidarsko kladivo

Zidarsko kladivo je namenjeno težjim gradbenim delom, kjer je potrebno obdelovati beton, kamen ali opeko. Ima kvadratno udarno površino za zabijanje in ploščato konico za lomljenje ter obdelavo materiala. Kladivo je odlično za gradbena in prenovitvena dela, kjer potrebujete moč in vzdržljivost.

Primer uporabe: Pri odstranjevanju starega ometa ali razbijanju manjših kosov betona vam bo zidarsko kladivo omogočilo natančno obdelavo površin.
