Vaughan Mallet NT175 1-3/4 Inch Nylon Faced Hammer (Replaceable Non Marring Dual Faces Zinc Alloy Head Shock Absorbing Hickory Handle Assembly Tool)

Vaughan NT175 1-3/4-Inch Replaceable Nylon Faced Hammer with Hickory Handle

The Vaughan NT175 1-3/4-Inch Nylon Faced Hammer delivers firm striking force without surface marring, denting, or sparking across delicate woodworking assemblies, automotive bodywork, and soft metal fabrication. Featuring dual 1.75-inch replaceable threaded high-density nylon faces mounted onto a chrome-plated zinc alloy head, the serrated head interface locks faces securely to prevent loosening under heavy repetitive impacts. An authentic American hickory hardwood handle absorbs kinetic recoil and vibration to reduce wrist fatigue during precision joinery, aircraft maintenance, and sheet metal forming operations.

Best Used For:

• Fine Cabinetry & Furniture Joinery: Seating mortise-and-tenon joints, driving dowel pins, and assembling pre-finished hardwood casework without denting timber fibers.
• Soft Metal Forming & Sizing: Shaping aluminum ductwork, positioning brass bushings, and fitting copper architectural components without surface stretching or scoring.
• Automotive & Mechanical Assembly: Tapping bearing races, transmission housings, and finished engine components into place safely without damaging precision-machined contact faces.

Key Performance & Safety Features

• Non-Marring High-Density Nylon Faces: Yields firm kinetic transfer while cushioning impact points to protect sensitive substrates from dents, fractures, and cosmetic marks.
• Serrated Zinc Alloy Head Core: Die-cast zinc alloy core features internal locking serrations that keep threaded striking faces firmly seated during aggressive off-center hits.
• Replaceable Threaded Face Design: Threaded 1-3/4-inch nylon faces swap out quickly when worn, drastically extending the service life of the overall hammer.
• Shock-Dampening Hickory Handle: Genuine contoured American hickory wood naturally dissipates harmonic shock waves to protect joints from repetitive strain injuries.
• Corrosion-Resistant Chrome Plating: Mirror chrome protective finish shields the heavy-duty metal head against workshop moisture, industrial oils, and oxidation.

Technical Specifications

Pro-Tip: Check the threaded nylon faces periodically during intense assembly runs; ensure they remain hand-snug against the serrated zinc shoulder to maintain optimum energy transfer and eliminate face wobble.
