Product Information
Full details
The Kampa Thor Club Hammer is an essential tool for dedicated campers and outdoor enthusiasts who require a reliable, heavy-duty solution for securing tent pegs in firm or rocky terrain. Providing excellent driving power through its balanced 1kg steel head, it simplifies the setup process for family-sized tents and awnings; however, its substantial weight may be unnecessary for those using lightweight trekking tents or soft, sandy soil.

FAQs
Is this hammer safe to use on plastic tent pegs?
It is not recommended. The 1kg weight is designed for steel pegs and may easily shatter plastic or nylon stakes.
Does the hammer come with a protective cover?
No, it is supplied as a standalone tool.
Can I use this for non-camping tasks?
Yes, it functions well as a general-purpose club hammer for light DIY tasks around the home or garden.
How do I clean the rubber handle?
Simply wash with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth, then air dry completely.
Is the handle replaceable?
The handle is integrated into the tool's design; it is not intended for user replacement.
Troubleshooting
Surface rust appearing on the steel head
Use a light abrasive pad to remove the rust and apply a thin coat of mineral oil to prevent further oxidation.
Handle feeling slippery
Wipe the rubber handle with a damp cloth to remove dirt or campsite residue and dry thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This hammer is compatible with most standard camping pegs, specifically steel, hardened iron, or rock pegs. To ensure longevity, keep the steel head dry to prevent corrosion. After camping in wet conditions, wipe the head clean and apply a thin layer of light machine oil if you notice signs of surface rust. The rubber handle does not require special maintenance, but keeping it away from extreme heat sources—like an open fire—will preserve the material's integrity. When not in use, store in a dry gear bag away from moisture.
