Expert By Facom Soft Face Hammers at Tooled-Up.com

Expert By Facom Soft Face Hammers are made for jobs where a steel hammer would mark, dent or deform the workpiece. Tooled-Up.com stocks them for tradespeople and serious DIYers who need to apply real striking force while protecting the surface underneath.

The selection includes the Expert by Facom Copper / Rawhide Hammer, a dual-face soft hammer for heavy-duty striking where surface protection matters. One end has a copper face and the other a rawhide face. The head absorbs shock on impact but still transfers effective force to the workpiece. The Expert by Facom Interchangeable Nylon Face Hammer suits general striking and assembly work, and its faces can be swapped when they wear.

Dead blow hammers and replacement hammer faces sit alongside them. Together they let you set up a hammer for the material and the job, then keep it working.

Key Features of Expert By Facom Soft Face Hammers

• Dual copper and rawhide faces: Two striking surfaces in one tool. Pick the face that suits the material, without carrying a second hammer.
• Shock absorption: The face materials take up impact, so less of the shock goes into the workpiece and your hand.
• Reduced risk of marking: Softer faces help prevent damage to delicate or finished surfaces during assembly and disassembly.
• Interchangeable nylon faces: When a face wears, you fit a new one rather than replacing the whole hammer. That keeps running costs down.
• Dead blow options: Designed to cut rebound, so each blow lands where you aimed it.
• Replacement faces available: Browse the Hammer Faces category to keep an existing hammer in working order.

Popular Expert By Facom Soft Face Hammers

Copper / Rawhide Hammer

This is the choice for heavy-duty striking where you still need to protect the surface. Use the copper face when you need a firmer blow, and the rawhide face when you want a gentler one. It works well for assembly and disassembly jobs where a standard steel hammer would leave marks or deform the part.

Interchangeable Nylon Face Hammer

A versatile option for everyday workshop use. Because the faces can be replaced, one hammer head stays in service through repeated wear.

Dead Blow Hammers and Hammer Faces

Choose a dead blow hammer when rebound is the problem, and stock spare hammer faces so you are never caught out mid-job. Shop Expert By Facom Soft Face Hammers at Tooled-Up.com to compare the options side by side.
