What is a "welding hammer"?
A welding hammer is a tool used in welding and metalworking to strike and remove slag, the byproduct left over from welding. It typically has a flat face on one side for striking and a pointed or chisel-like end on the other side for scraping off slag from the weld, the area where two metal pieces are joined together. The hammer usually has a sturdy handle, often made of wood or fiberglass, to provide control and strength during use. Welding hammers are commonly used by welders to clean welds, ensuring a smooth and strong bond between the metal pieces.
