Shoemaker's Hammer 500g GEKO G72245 with Fibreglass Handle
Shoemaker's hammer with a 500 g head mounted on a reinforced fibreglass handle. A tool designed for shoemaking and upholstery work, as well as precision tasks requiring a contoured head.
Technical features
Fibreglass handle
Fibreglass combines low weight with mechanical strength that exceeds that of wood. The material does not crack under overload and is resistant to moisture and temperature fluctuations. It reduces the vibrations transmitted to the wrist during use.
Contoured 500 g head
Hardened high-carbon steel provides a hard working surface. The contoured shape of the head (143 × 52 × 29 mm) allows precise strikes in confined spaces. The partial rubber coating reduces the risk of damaging delicate materials.
Ergonomic TPR grip
Thermoplastic rubber (TPR) forms a non-slip layer with deep grooves. The material maintains grip with damp hands and does not harden at low temperatures. The TPR surface absorbs part of the impact energy.
Working length 330 mm
The overall length of 330 mm provides adequate leverage for the 500 g head. The tool's proportions allow controlled strikes without excessive effort. Its compact dimensions make it easier to work in a confined workshop space.

Use and maintenance
Checks before use
Make sure the head is securely mounted on the handle. Check the condition of the rubber grip – a damaged TPR layer reduces grip. Wipe any dirt from the working surface, as it can cause the hammer to slip off the workpiece.
Technique for using a shoemaker's hammer
A shoemaker's hammer requires controlled strikes rather than forceful blows. The contoured head should be positioned to match the shape of the surface. When working with delicate materials, use the rubberised part of the head. Avoid striking at an angle, which can damage the edges of the head.
Maintaining the fibreglass handle
Fibreglass does not require sealing like wood. Periodic cleaning to remove dust and dirt is sufficient. The TPR layer should be protected from contact with organic solvents, which can damage the structure of the material. Store in a dry place, although fibreglass is resistant to moisture.
