Smaller than the Fretz Mini hammer line, PrecisionSmith hammers feature shorter head lengths (65mm vs. 70mm on average), reduced working surfaces, and thinner handles, making them ideal for controlled, exacting metalwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike all Fretz hammers, the HMR-402 features a highly polished, properly hardened stainless steel head paired with a rosewood handle finished to a standard that is immediately noticeable in hand. The balance is precisely tuned, and the handle finish is exceptionally smooth — a hallmark of the PrecisionSmith series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Raising:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raising is the compression of metal down to the stake without stretching it. The technique requires angling the metal off the stake to create an air gap for compression. The Wide Raising Hammer can be used to raise sheet metal into a bowl shape against a wooden stake or metal t-stake. It is also effective for raising in cylinders to form concave shapes and can be used to planish subtle concave forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart of the Fretz PrecisionSmith super-small hammer series for fine, detailed jewelry work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmaller working surface and shorter head than the Fretz Mini line for increased precision\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardened stainless steel head polished to a high, refined finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosewood handle with a special finish — smooth, comfortable, and well-balanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat face profile in two sizes for versatile raising and planishing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for raising sheet metal into bowls against wooden or metal t-stakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective for raising in cylinders and forming subtle concave shapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHMR-402\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWide Raising\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFace Shape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFace Sizes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13 x 5mm \u0026amp; 13 x 7mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65mm (2-1\/2\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.3 oz.
