The Roughneck Gorilla V-Series Slater's Hammer provides enhanced striking power and minimized vibration. Constructed from drop-forged, hardened, and tempered steel, its distinctive V-Shock twin-beam girder shaft functions as a damper, lessening shock and vibration transmission, further regulated by an air-cushioned grip. The reduced weight in the shaft shifts the center of gravity towards the head, leading to better balance and less exertion. The pick end facilitates the creation of holes in slates, and a built-in nail puller enables easy nail removal. A lanyard hole at the base of the handle ensures safe and secure tethering for work at height.
