Sando SDCLUB/2-12 Steel Club Hammer, 0.9 kg, 305 mm Handle

Sando copper head sledge hammers use a 99.98% pure copper head, which Sando says reduces the chance of damage to workpieces and the chance of ignition or sparking in hazardous areas (manufacturer-stated). Sando describes the handle as a series of high tensile spring steel rods with very strong, abrasion-resistant rubber moulded around them under a high compression factor, and says the head is vulcanised to the rubber during moulding and secured to the rods by a positive locking plate (manufacturer-stated).

This listing has five copper head sledge hammers, from 1.4 kg (3 lb) on a 305 mm (12 in) handle to 6.3 kg (14 lb) on a 762 mm (30 in) handle, plus SDCLUB/2-12. SDCLUB/2-12 is a 0.9 kg (2 lb) steel club hammer with a hard face, not a copper head; Sando lists it with its steel club hammers (manufacturer-stated).

Common specifications

Key specifications

Weights, handle lengths and rod counts are taken from the Sando product brochure (2022) part number table. SDCLUB/2-12 is a steel club hammer; it is listed here with the copper head sledge hammers but does not have a copper head. The brochure notes that product specifications can change without notice, so confirm critical dimensions before ordering.

Selecting the right option

Pick the head weight first, then the handle. Sando fits four rods in the 305 mm (12 in) and 610 mm (24 in) handles and six rods in the 762 mm (30 in) handles. SDSLDG/8-24C and SDSLDG/8-30C have the same 3.6 kg (8 lb) head with the short and long handle, so the choice is reach. Copper reduces the chance of sparking according to Sando, but it is not a certification for any particular hazardous area: check your site requirements before use in one.
