Real Steel Brass Sledge Hammer — 4 lb, Fibreglass Handle (Model RSH0423)
The Real Steel RSH0423 is a high-impact 4 lb (≈1.81 kg) brass-head sledge hammer, engineered for applications where steel hammers may cause damage or spark. The non-sparking brass head helps preserve delicate components and prevents ignition in sensitive environments, while the fibreglass handle offers vibration reduction and reliable durability across workshop and site use.
Extra Information
- Perfect for automotive workshops, plant maintenance, heavy assembly and drift tasks — especially around sensitive equipment.
- Inspect the brass face routinely for deformation (“mushrooming”) and dress the surface when needed to maintain safe striking.
- Clean and store after use; avoid using around hardened steel edges as the brass may damage quickly.
Pro Tip
- Before using on stuck parts, apply penetrating oil and let it soak — then use the brass hammer to avoid damaging the component surface.
- Keep a designated “brass hammer only” compartment in your tool-van to stop it being used inadvertently for general steel-hammer jobs. This saves the brass face and ensures best performance.
Features
- 4 lb solid brass head — softer than steel to reduce marring and spark risk.
- Fibreglass handle — strong, lightweight and absorbs shock for safer repeated blows.
- Textured grip area for secure handling, even with gloves or in oily conditions.
- Flat-faced striking surfaces designed for punch, drift or drift-removal tasks.
Benefits
- Surface-friendly striking: Brass head protects shafts, bearings and precision parts from damage.
- Non-sparking safety: Ideal in environments with flammable vapours or where sparks must be avoided.
- Operator comfort: Fibreglass handle and balanced head reduce fatigue and blow bounce.
Safety
- Wear eye and hand protection — brass fragments may detach if the face is chipped or damaged.
- Inspect the hammer before use; replace if the head shows cracks or the fibreglass handle is compromised.
- Do not use the brass hammer to strike hardened steel edges repeatedly — this will damage the face and reduce tool life.
