Built with the tradesman in mind, the OX Ultrastrike Framing Hammer is comfortable yet powerful. The OX Ultrastrike Framing Hammers are constructed from one-piece of forged steel which is built to withstand any jobsite condition. The magnetic nail starter on the head allows for simple handling and overall use as it is easier for you to line up your nail precisely. The bridged neck of the hammer is designed to absorb strike shock and vibration which reduces user strain. Limiting the vibration of the hammer helps to reduce repetitive stress injuries and pains. Built tough and durable, the hammer is also designed to be comfortable and ergonomic for day-to-day use. The nonslip OX Grip is made to help users hold the hammer with ease while remaining comfortable throughout the working day. The hammer is heat treated to give it greater overall durability as well as allow it to last longer over time.
