Tekton announced an expansion of their line of USA-made dead blow hammers, with 5 sizes of flat steel face models.
The new Tekton steel flat-face dead blow hammers are similar to ball peen hammers, but with both striking faces being flat rather than one being flat and the other highly curved.
The hammers are not symmetrical, with one strike face having a larger diameter.
As is typical for dead blow hammers, these feature a shot-filled head cavity designed to minimize strike rebound and bouncing.
There are 2 set options, 3pc and 5pc, and all of the hammers are also available individually.
Here are the new Tekton flat steel face dead blow hammer sizes, as well as launch pricing:
- 26oz ($55)
- 36oz ($60)
- 43oz short (65)
- 47oz ($70)
- 50oz long ($75)
The 3pc set ($180) comes with 36oz, 43oz, and 50oz sizes, and the 5pc set ($296) comes with all of them.
Tekton provides a neat parts diagram showing how their new dead blow hammers are constructed.
The hammers feature 4140 steel hammer faces, round steel shot fill, and hot cast polyurethane jacketing with a textured handle.
These look to be made by Trusty-Cook.
