69K5030 - Halder Simplex Replaceable-Face Mallet
Sometimes, a bigger hammer is the best solution to a problem.
This mallet has two faces of different hardnesses – a white face of ultra-dense polymer (“superplastic”) with high-impact resistance best suited for use on harder materials, and a blue face of softer, non-marring TPE plastic that’s more forgiving on softwoods and materials that call for a gentler touch. The soft face compresses slightly on impact, remaining in contact for a fraction of a second, delivering a smoother transmission of force at the expense of a slightly “bouncy” feel.
Each 30mm diameter face is highly durable, but spare replacement faces are offered should you damage or wear one out. The faces mount on a cast-iron head attached to a lacquered acacia handle. The mallet measures 11 1/2" and weighs just under 3/4 lb.
Made in Germany.
Unlike a single-face nylon mallet, this one has two interchangeable faces: a harder superplastic side for dense materials and a softer TPE side that compresses slightly on impact for a gentler strike.
Yes, replacement TPE and superplastic face inserts are available as accessories, so a worn or damaged face can be swapped without buying a new mallet.
The TPE face compresses briefly on impact before rebounding, which softens the strike but gives back a slight bounce compared to a rigid face.
It's made of lacquered acacia.
