HAMMERS Stanley has a long, rich history of manufacturing some of the world’s best-performing and best-selling hammers, a product tradition that continues to this very day. However, the inspiration for the original Stanley hammer – and all other striking tools for that matter -- dates back a bit further in time. The tool that we now know as the hammer was first developed around 7000 B.C. during the Neolithic period. It was during the New Stone Age that man first lashed a tree branch to a chunk of stone. And with this act, known as hafting – fitting a handle to a tool previously held in the hand – the hammer was born. That simple act took place slightly before Stanley Tools was founded, but the company has made great strides in the past 150 years or so to become one of the world’s premier makers of high-quality hammers. In 1863 Stanley made 20 different types of wooden mallets, and just 9 years later the company added 14 iron hammers to its growing line of striking tools. Many of these new hammers were designed for specific tradesmen, such as cobblers, farriers, blacksmiths and railroad workers. Today, Stanley Tools manufactures nearly 100 different types of hammers in virtually every imaginable size and shape. They include nail hammers, framing hammers, sledgehammers, soft-faced hammers, ballpein hammers and a dizzying array of specialty hammers for such jobs as tacking upholstery, nailing shingles, laying bricks and hanging drywall. Stanley’s world-renown and world-class research and development teams design hammers that not only exceed customers’ expectations, but also live up to the proud Stanley name. And in its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, Stanley produces hammers made from the finest materials available, including wood, fiberglass, steel and graphite. One of Stanley’s most innovative hammer advancements includes the revolutionary AntiVibe® technology that features a patented tuning fork and shock-reducing stabilizer bars built into the handle. The handle is forged from a single piece of hardened steel, and the tuning fork design minimizes vibration and shock at impact. Any tool manufacturer can design a hammer to pound in nails. The engineers at Stanley looked beyond the nail and took into account the person behind the hammer. And that’s the kind of thorough, thoughtful engineering you’ll find in every Stanley tool.
