Ball-Peen Hammer
A ball peen hammer is for shaping and pounding metal, like repairing dents or breaking loose a rusted component. It has a rounded end on one side for rounding or smoothing edges. The other end is flat for smoothing flat surfaces. The head is made of heat treated steel, making it very hard.
Tool Tips
When striking metal, keep a moderate grip rather than a tight grip. This allows the hammer to bounce back slightly instead of absorbing the impact into your arm and shoulder.
