Since a hammer's main role is to hit things and the potential for disaster is high, we need to be absolutely certain that:

​

• The materials are strong enough not to break or shatter

• The head of the hammer will stay on the shaft

• It's comfortable to use and has a good grip

​

In this module we'll look now at how we achieve these aims by examining:

​

• The parts of a hammer and how they are treated in order to make them fit for purpose

• The different types of hammer and their uses

• The different hammers in the C.K Tools and Avit ranges
