Gedore Recoilless Nylon Tip Hammer with 30mm Tips - this is Gedore's premium hammer in their 248 series. Comparable to the considerably more expensive Facom 212A series (better in my opinion). Also the Facom hammers are now made in Taiwan (the Gedore hammers are made in Austria). Features include....
- Almost unbreakable fibreglass hammer handle with plastic grip and secure head
- Splinter-proof, shatter-proof, and wear-resistant polyamide heads, 75 Shore D, tested to -20° C
- Powder coated with silver hammer-effect enamel
- Weight = 550gr (1.2 lbs)
- Length = 305mm (12")
- Replacement heads (tips) are available (1-4 week lead time) (part # E 248-30)
- Made in Austria
- US warranty
I currently stock the 30mm and 40mm tip size hammers in this series. See comp photo. Facom does NOT offer a 212A with a 30mm tip (their sizes start at 35mm)
The Gedore 8867690 (Model Number: 248 F-30) is a premium, high-efficiency professional recoilless soft-face dead-blow hammer with a 30 mm head diameter. It is engineered specifically for strike-sensitive applications—such as position alignment, transmission assembly, and bodywork—delivering full striking impact to the workpiece without any dangerous rebound or ricochet effect.
The internal chamber of the hammer head contains moving steel shot weights that shift forward upon impact. This counter-balancing motion absorbs kinetic rebound energy, dampens vibrational shock to the user's wrist, and translates the entire force directly into the target material.
- Face Face Material: Splinter-proof, shatter-proof, and wear-resistant polyamide
- Face Hardness Rating: 75 Shore D (tested down to industrial thermal shifts of -20° C)
- Handle Assembly: Virtually unbreakable tubular fiberglass construction protected by a comfortable, slip-resistant plastic grip
- Housing Finish: Heavy-duty powder coating layered with silver hammer-effect enamel
