Rawhide Mallet - Size 4 x 2"

Rawhide Mallet – Size 4, 2" Head

Shape, form and flatten metal while helping to minimise surface marks with this American-made rawhide mallet. The resilient rawhide head is impregnated with shellac, providing a firm striking surface for jewellery making, metalworking and metal stamping applications.

Unlike a conventional steel hammer, the rawhide head helps reduce scratching and unwanted marks on metal surfaces. It is useful for forming sheet metal, shaping wire, flattening metal components and working with jewellery pieces where preserving the finish is important.
