The Faithfull Nylon Hammer (38mm) is an essential tool for professional tradespeople and serious DIY enthusiasts working in assembly-heavy environments like furniture making, shop fitting, and double glazing. It offers the key benefit of delivering impactful force without damaging sensitive workpieces, thanks to its soft, replaceable nylon faces. However, users should note that as a soft-faced tool, it is not intended for driving hardened nails or heavy-duty demolition tasks, as the nylon faces can deform under extreme, high-impact stress against sharp metal surfaces.

It is not recommended. Nylon hammers are designed for assembly and delicate work; concrete is abrasive and will degrade the nylon face very quickly.
Replace the faces once they show significant deep pitting, cracks, or a flattened surface that no longer provides a clean impact area.
The handle is integrated into the tool design; if the shaft becomes compromised, the entire hammer unit should be inspected for safety.
It is highly popular in engineering, shop fitting, furniture assembly, glazing, and injection moulding.
The soft nylon construction is specifically designed to avoid leaving marks, dents, or scratches on finished surfaces.
Rotate the nylon face clockwise by hand to ensure it is fully screwed into the chrome head housing.
Wipe the grip with a clean cloth to remove any oil, grease, or dust buildup that may have accumulated during work.
Replace the nylon face insert; the hammer is designed for the face to take the damage instead of your workpiece.
To keep your hammer in peak condition, ensure the screw-in faces are tightened firmly before use. If the nylon faces become heavily scarred or deformed, unscrew the old heads and replace them with new, manufacturer-approved spares. The shaft requires little maintenance beyond wiping away debris after use. Avoid exposing the plastic handle to extreme heat or chemical solvents, as these may degrade the material over long periods. Store in a dry, cool place to keep the chrome head free from moisture-related corrosion.
