Choosing upholstery tack hammers

Look at the work that meets the face

A magnetic tack hammer can hold a compatible tack at the point of placement. Check the tack material and the face that will finish the strike, particularly when the head will be visible.

Compare bronze and nylon variants

Osborne lists the 33 as a seven-ounce bronze-head model and the 36 as a nylon-tip magnetic hammer. Compare the face that contacts your fastener, then consider head weight and clearance around the attachment.

Department questions

Is a listed weight the weight I will swing?

Check whether the maker gives head weight or total weight. Osborne identifies the seven ounces of the No. 33 as the head weight.

What if the tack head will be visible after installation?

Compare the striking face against the head finish. Osborne describes the No. 36 nylon face for work needing a softer strike.

Should I compare the head diameter as well as the weight?

Yes. The magnetic face positions a compatible tack. The driving face has its own width, which can matter near a trim edge.
