Capri Tools CP10102 C102 12 lb Dead Blow Hammer – 36-1-2-inch Orange

Overview

The Capri Tools CP10102 C102 dead blow hammer is designed for high-impact tasks where you need serious force without marring the work surface. With a 12 lb head and a generous reach of about 36-1/2 inches, it balances weight, control, and reach for larger projects while remaining responsive in hand.

Inside the rugged body, a steel shot-filled canister absorbs shock and minimizes rebound, so you feel steadier and more deliberate with each strike. The result is a tool that can help you place hits with confidence, reducing mishits and fatigue over extended sessions.
