Overview
The MAXPOWER M24260 pairs an alloy steel head with a fiberglass handle in a single piece, 4 pound tool. The weight puts it above a standard claw hammer and closer to a hand sledge or striking hammer for heavier work.
Fiberglass handles absorb shock better than wood on repeated heavy strikes, which matters more as head weight climbs. The listing doesn't specify head shape or face style, so buyers doing precision work should confirm against their exact task before ordering.
- Alloy steel head
- Fiberglass handle
- 4 pound total weight
- Sold as a single piece
Who it's for
Fits users who need a heavier striking tool for demolition, driving stakes or breaking material loose. Not the right pick for fine finish carpentry that calls for a lighter claw hammer.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Alloy steel head built for repeated heavy strikes
- Fiberglass handle reduces shock on impact
- Single piece construction with no assembly
- Exact head style and face shape not specified
- Heavier than a standard hammer for light nailing
Performance notes
Alloy steel heads resist chipping better than plain carbon steel under repeated heavy impact, and the fiberglass handle cuts down on vibration transferred to the hand compared with wood or solid steel.
