A wooden maul is a large hammer made of oak or other hardwood.
The head of the hammer is 5-6" in diameter, the handle is about 35" long, and it weighs 6.5-11 lb. The heavier the hammer, the more force is required to strike the target.
They are mainly used for driving wooden or plastic piles that may be damaged or cracked by steel hammers, or for demolition work such as destroying buildings.
In recent years, many manufacturers have introduced a resin-made wooden maul, which is highly durable and resistant to moisture.
Wooden mauls are used for a wide variety of purposes other than the commonly known construction site.
They are used for driving wooden or plastic piles in construction, engineering, horticulture, and agriculture.
They are also used to destroy objects at demolition sites.
Other uses of disaster prevention include the demolition of collapsed buildings and pile driving to create inaccessible spaces. Generally, wooden mauls with metal rings are used for disaster prevention.
The key to choosing wooden mauls is their intended use and ease of use.
The heavier the wooden mauls, the stronger the force required to drive it in and the easier it is to work with. When driving a stake with wooden mauls, the striking surface of the maul must be parallel to the head of the stake, so it is not a problem to rely on arm strength.
Wooden mauls, which are heavy and have long handles, are used by professional craftsmen on construction and demolition sites because they can drive stakes firmly and break down walls.
A resin arrow with a steel head center has strong resilience and can be swung with less force than a wooden maul because of its recoil. They also do not produce the distinctive sound of wooden mauls. As a result, they are used when people want to work quietly, such as early in the morning.
In recent years, many manufacturers have introduced a wooden maul called a "shockless hammer," which has a container inside the head that contains a weight such as an iron ball, the weight of which moves to absorb recoil and reduce impact. Since these shockless hammers do not cause vibrations to resonate in the hand, they are recommended for people who work for long hours as a hobby, such as DIY.
To work safely, it is important to select wooden mauls that are suitable for your purpose of use in terms of material, weight, and handle length.
