Overview

The HAZET 1951-27 is a plastic-headed hammer from the German tool maker, weighing about 0.22 kilograms with a plastic and cellulose handle, sold as a single piece.

Because both head and handle are listed as plastic, this reads as a soft-face mallet meant to avoid marking or denting the surfaces it strikes, rather than a metal claw or ball-peen hammer.

  • Plastic head and cellulose-reinforced handle
  • Weighs about 0.22 kilograms
  • Sold as a single piece
  • Made by HAZET, a German hand tool brand

Who it's for

People who need a non-marring mallet for automotive trim, delicate assembly or panel work where a steel head would dent or scratch the surface. Not for anyone needing a heavy hammer for nails or metal punches.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Non-marring plastic head
  • Lightweight at about 0.22 kilograms
  • From an established German tool brand
Cons
  • Less striking force than a steel hammer
  • Not suited to heavy demolition or metalwork

Performance notes

A plastic head absorbs impact and spreads force over a wider area than steel, cushioning the blow when seating parts or panels without leaving marks, though it delivers less striking force than a steel-headed hammer of similar size.
