Wilton B.A.S.H 12in Sledge Hammer, 4 lb Head — Unbreakable Handle Tech & Anti-Vibe Neck

Overview

Meet the Wilton B.A.S.H 12-inch sledge hammer, built for demanding jobs and busy work sites. The 4-pound head is drop-forged and finished with a patented hi-vis coating, designed to stay visible and withstand heavy use in harsh environments. This is a tool you can reach for when projects demand serious impact, reliability, and consistent performance.
