The Ampco Safety Tools H-14FG is a 2 lb double face machinists' hammer with fiberglass handle — non-sparking, non-magnetic, and corrosion-resistant, 14 in. OAL, designed for driving punches, chisels, stamps, and drifts in hazardous work environments.

Manufactured in the USA and Factory Mutual approved, it is beryllium-free and built for professionals who work around flammable or combustible vapors, liquids, dust, or residue where a standard steel tool could trigger a dangerous spark. Its non-magnetic properties make it safe for use near highly sensitive magnetic equipment, including MRI and clean room environments, and it conforms to ASTM F2503 and ASTM A342 standards.

Unlike conventional steel tools, the Ampco H-14FG delivers outstanding durability even in the most corrosive conditions, including exposure to salt water, chemicals, and acids.

The H-14FG double face engineers hammer is the go-to choice for oil and gas, petrochemical, mining, military, and industrial maintenance applications where worker safety and tool reliability are non-negotiable.

FAQ

What is a double face machinists' hammer used for?

A double face hammer has a flat striking surface on both ends, making it ideal for driving punches, chisels, stamps, and drifts — or any application requiring a flat, controlled strike without a ball peen.

What alloy is the hammer head made from?

The head is cast from Ampco's high-strength nickel aluminum bronze alloy — non-sparking, non-magnetic, Factory Mutual approved, and beryllium-free.

Is this hammer safe around MRI equipment?

Yes. The H-14FG is independently tested and verified safe in MRI environments up to 3-Tesla static fields and is ASTM F2503 compliant.

What is the advantage of a fiberglass handle over wood?

Fiberglass handles are approximately 10× stronger than wood, resistant to chemicals and moisture, and provide better vibration damping to reduce operator fatigue in sustained use.

Is the Ampco H-14FG covered by a warranty?

Yes. All Ampco Safety Tools carry a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
