Draper Hickory Ball and Cross Pein Hammer Shaft

The Draper Hickory Ball and Cross Pein Hammer Shaft is a premium replacement handle designed for ball and cross pein hammers up to 900g (32oz). Crafted from straight-grained hickory, this 400mm shaft provides the strength and durability required for demanding workshop and construction applications. The hickory construction offers exceptional shock absorption whilst maintaining the rigidity needed for accurate striking. The shaft has been carefully sanded and waxed to deliver a comfortable grip and enhanced surface protection, helping to prevent splintering during regular use. This traditional finishing process also improves the handle's resistance to moisture and wear. Ideal for metalworkers, engineers and general tradespeople who need to replace worn or damaged hammer handles, this shaft comes complete with a size No.1 wedge for secure fitting. The straight grain orientation ensures consistent performance and reduces the risk of handle failure under load, making it suitable for both professional workshops and industrial maintenance environments.
