WhatsApp Order

A stoning hammer with a wood handle is a specialized tool designed for shaping and dressing stones in various construction and masonry applications. It typically consists of a heavy metal head with two flat faces, one slightly larger than the other, and a sturdy wooden handle. The larger face is used for striking and breaking rocks or stones, while the smaller face is employed for more precise shaping and finishing work. The wooden handle provides a comfortable grip for the user and helps absorb some of the impact force, making the tool effective for tasks like splitting, trimming, or sculpting stones in construction and masonry projects.

SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
  1. Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):

    • Ear Protection: If you are working in a noisy environment, use earplugs or earmuffs to protect your hearing.
    • Gloves: Wear sturdy work gloves to protect your hands from blisters, abrasions, or potential impacts.
  2. Choose the Right Hammer for the Job:

  3. Inspect the Hammer Regularly:
    • Before each use, inspect the stoning hammer for any signs of wear, damage, or loose components. Replace or repair any damaged parts.
  4. Use the Correct Technique:
    • Follow proper techniques for using the stoning hammer. Ensure a firm grip on the handle and maintain good balance while striking.

    • Choose a stable and level working surface. Make sure the stone or material you are working on is secured and won't move unexpectedly.
  6. Keep a Clear Work Area:
    • Remove any tripping hazards or obstacles from your work area. Maintain a clean and organized space to reduce the risk of accidents.
  7. Maintain Proper Body Position:
    • Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart for stability. Keep your body balanced and centered to avoid losing control of the hammer.
