Choose claw hammers when you need to drive nails into timber or pull old fixings back out. Whether you are building a stud wall, repairing a fence or taking apart timberwork, the curved or straight claw gives you useful leverage for removal jobs. Add one to your collection of hammers for everyday carpentry, building and DIY tasks, alongside your other hand tools.
Compare different head weights, shaft materials and grip styles to find a hammer that suits your swing. Fibreglass and steel shafts offer different handling options, while shaped grips can help you stay comfortable during repeated use. Choose from brands such as Stanley, Estwing and Olympia.
When you need to tap timber joints together with less risk of leaving marks, use a softer mallet instead. You can also explore our wider range of carpenters tools for measuring, shaping and fitting timber.
