Description
A spring-loaded planishing hammer works from the bench rather than by hand: set the sheet on the flat lower platen, press down on the spring-loaded upper platen, and the tool applies even, controlled force to straighten and flatten. This standard size hammer from OMO is made in Italy, and it handles both jobs a bench planisher is bought for, bringing domed or warped sheet back down and taking a piece to a flat finish with minimal effort.
The platens are hardened to Rockwell 60, which suits the tool to non-ferrous soft metal alloys including copper, brass, silver and gold. The upper round platen measures 2-3/8" (62 mm) in diameter, the removable lower platen measures 3" (76 mm), and the tool stands 15-1/2" (390 mm) tall on a base footprint of 7-1/4" (185 mm) × 5-1/16" (130 mm).
Features
- Spring-loaded mechanism for fast, repeatable planishing action
- Upper platen: 2-3/8" (62 mm) diameter, round
- Removable lower platen: 3" (76 mm) diameter
- Platens hardened to Rockwell 60
- Suited to copper, brass, silver and gold alloys
- Stationary bench mount design for stable operation
- Made in Italy
Notes
Metals harder than the platens may cause platen damage. Use care when planishing alloys harder than Rockwell 60, which includes anything harder than copper, brass, silver or gold. A large size version of this planishing hammer is also available separately.

Otto Frei is an excellent company that I’ve relied on for quality products and service.
This might just be the new standard of quality or maybe it slipped through quality control.
Using a planishing hammer with tooling marks, pits and light rust doesn’t fit with the level of quality work we produce.
I’ve disassembled it and am putting a usable finish on it before I use it.
I’m not thrilled but it’s not a deal breaker. This product might not be but Otto Frei is five stars.

I love it. It flattens so easily.

I unpacked it but haven't had a chance to use it yet. The sucker is HEAVY! It looks like a quality piece of equipment.
