A claw hammer is a type of hammer used to drive nails into or extract nails from other objects. Generally, claw hammer woodworking is most commonly used, but is not limited to use with wood products. A claw hammer is not suitable for heavy hammering on metal surfaces (e.g. in machining) because the steel at the head is slightly brittle; Ball hammer is more suitable for striking on the surface of metal products.
Claw hammer applies the lever principle, which is a labor-saving lever. The production process of claw hammer generally includes forging, cutting, sandblasting, polishing, heat treatment, adding handle and other steps.
A claw hammer roughly resembles the letter "T", where the handle is the long part, and the head is the line across the top that looks like a "t". In fact, the head of the hammer does not form a straight line, but curves downward into the claw of the hammer. One side of the head is flat, has a smooth or textured surface, and is used to impact another surface. The other side of the head bends down and splits in the middle to form a "V" shape. This part is the claw of the hammer and is most commonly used to extract nails from wood. The round end of the claw is combined with the handle to gain leverage when pulling out the nail.
