Grace USA Ballpeen Hammer, 12 oz

The Grace USA Ballpeen Hammer, 12 oz (brand part no. TC2012) is a general-purpose bench hammer from Grace USA with the traditional rounded peen on one face and a flat striking face on the other. At 12 oz, it has enough mass for tasks like setting rivets, shaping small metal parts, or striking a punch or chisel where a lighter tap won’t do the job. It’s a standard reach-for-it tool alongside the softer-metal brass and delrin hammers for the jobs where a firmer strike is actually called for. Every gunsmithing bench benefits from having at least one properly weighted ballpeen on hand.

Key Specifications

• 12 oz head weight gives enough mass for rivet setting, metal shaping, and striking punches or chisels.
• Ballpeen head design pairs a rounded peen face with a flat striking face.
