Klein Tools H80626 6-Pound Forged Steel Head Fiberglass Lineman Sledgehammer
The Klein Tools H80626 is a 6-pound dual-faced forged carbon steel lineman sledgehammer engineered for high-impact demolition, anchor driving, and structural rebar bending. Fitted with a 16.4-inch high-strength fiberglass handle and a thermoplastic elastomer shock-absorbing grip, this 7.0 lb total weight striking tool incorporates built-in overstrike collar protection and a dual-purpose handle hang hole that functions as a #4 rebar pass-through bender. Compliant with ASME B107.400 safety manufacturing standards, this heavy-duty hammer includes an integrated lanyard hole for elevated tethering, allowing electrical utility crews, ironworkers, and concrete contractors to deliver controlled force in hazardous jobsite environments.
Best Used For:
- Rebar & Threaded Rod Bending: Inserting up to #4 steel rebar (1/2-inch diameter) through the handle passthrough hole to leverage precise manual bends on concrete forms.
- Ground Rod & Anchor Driving: Delivering high-impact strikes on earth ground rods, concrete anchors, and masonry stakes using dual 2.1-inch smooth striking faces.
- Utility Line & Demolition Construction: Striking hardware, breaking concrete forms, and clearing structural obstructions at heights using integrated lanyard tethering.
Key Performance & Safety Features
- 6-Pound Forged Carbon Steel Head: Solid dual-faced sledgehammer head provides maximum kinetic force transfer for heavy demolition and driving.
- Rebar Pass-Through & Hang Hole: Reinforced handle cutout acts as a tool belt hang hole and a functional manual bending die for up to #4 (1/2-inch) rebar.
- Integrated Overstrike Protection: High-density collar shroud guards the upper fiberglass handle shaft against structural fracture caused by missed strikes.
- Shock-Absorbing TPE Grip: Thermoplastic elastomer handle grip dampens harsh impact vibrations to minimize hand and wrist strain during repetitive swings.
- ASME B107.400 Safety Compliance: Manufactured to meet rigorous industrial striking tool standards for mechanical durability and head retention.
- Elevated Jobsite Tethering Hole: Molded lanyard attachment point at the handle base allows secure fall-protection tethering during high-elevation work.

Pro-Tip: When using the handle passthrough cutout to bend #4 rebar on site, slip the rod entirely through the opening before applying leverage. Position the hammer so torque is applied against the solid fiberglass core rather than twisting the head to prevent uneven handle stress.
