tail hammer

A tail hammers resemble a classic hammer in terms of their size and features. The head, however, is distinctly different in shape, though, as in the case of the famous Pendent, it is made of metal.

The webs of a tail hammer are differently strong and differently curved on the two sides, however always polished, in order to be able to carry out fine work with it. The size is classified by weight as with other hammers.

The usual tool is the tailing hammer in sheet metal processing. Here there is the operation of stretching, with an edge crimped, so bent and thus stabilized. The so-called tailing is carried out with the tailing hammer, and this is meanwhile also possible industrially with a hemming machine.
