Product Information

Full details

The Sealey Dual Face Mallet (FGM12) is designed for professionals requiring versatile striking options, offering a powerful polyurethane face for forceful impacts and a gentler rubber face for cushioned blows. Its advanced fibreglass shaft with a graphite core ensures superior strength and durability, while the TPR soft grip provides excellent comfort and control during prolonged use. The primary caveat is that while built for heavy-duty use, it may be overkill for light-duty DIY tasks.

FAQs

What is the main difference between the two mallet heads?

The white head is made of high-impact polyurethane for forceful strikes, while the red head is made of rubber for cushioned, non-damaging impacts.

Is this mallet suitable for light DIY tasks?

While it can be used for light tasks, its robust construction and weight are optimized for professional, heavy-duty applications. For very light DIY, a smaller or lighter mallet might be more appropriate.

What materials is the shaft made of?

The shaft is constructed from fibreglass with a graphite core, providing enhanced strength and durability.

Does the soft grip handle wear out?

The TPR soft grip is designed for durability in professional use. Regular cleaning and avoiding exposure to harsh chemicals will help maintain its condition.

What is the weight of the Sealey FGM12 mallet?

The overall weight of the mallet is 0.68kg, with a head weight of 60g.

What does the lifetime guarantee cover?

The lifetime guarantee typically covers manufacturing defects and faults under normal professional use. It's advisable to check the specific terms and conditions provided by Sealey.

Troubleshooting

Mallet head feels loose

Inspect the bond between the head and the shaft. If significant looseness is present, cease use and contact Sealey customer support regarding the lifetime guarantee.

White head leaving marks on delicate surfaces

Ensure you are using the correct face for the task. Switch to the red rubber face for softer, cushioned strikes on more sensitive materials.

Reduced striking power

Check for any debris or obstructions on the striking surface or the face of the mallet. Ensure you are using proper technique for optimal force transfer.
