E3‑28S Framing Hammer – 28 oz Smooth Face, 16 in

The E3‑28S Framing Hammer is a heavy‑duty, professional‑grade tool designed for powerful, controlled performance in framing and structural construction work. Featuring a 28‑ounce smooth face head and a 16‑inch handle, this hammer delivers exceptional striking force while maintaining surface protection—making it ideal for applications where strength is required without aggressive face texturing.

Built for demanding jobsites, the heavier 28 oz head generates increased momentum with each swing, helping drive large framing nails efficiently and reducing the number of strikes needed. The smooth face is preferred when working near finished or visible surfaces, as it minimizes marking compared to milled‑face hammers. The 16‑inch handle adds leverage and swing speed, supporting powerful, efficient framing work with improved reach.

The E3‑28S is equipped with a straight ripping claw, providing strong prying leverage for nail removal, board adjustment, and light demolition. Balanced for stability and control, this framing hammer is trusted by professionals who need maximum power without sacrificing precision.
