Curved Wood Slapper 14" Overall Length X 8" Surface Length X 2-1/4" Face Width

Metalshapers know that wood slappers of various shapes, although seemingly simple tools, quickly become a valuable asset in any metal shop.  Preferably made from top-quality hard wood, these Fournier slappers are made to our specs from grade A hard maple for strength and durability.  Unlike a hammer or mallet, a wood slapper has the added benefit of offering a variety of curved surfaces for forming the desired curve in the metal being worked.  Wood slappers are particularly helpful for stretching large areas of metal and for shaping gradual curves.  And, almost without exception, wood slappers are required for large metal shaping projects such as hoods, door skins, trunk lids and the like.

Features Include:

• Rounded handle and grip area are designed with comfort in mind to provide the hand and wrist a relaxed working position combined with a sturdy grasp.
• A long-term tool investment!  The Fournier wood slappers are custom designed for professional results.  Additionally, they are sealed with protective oil to resist stains and guard against moisture.
• Flatt slapper includes a generous 1/8" thick, leather face cover to protect your work and eliminate marring of the metal.  Keep in mind, leather faces are a necessity when working with aluminum.  Steel can be worked (slapped) with bare wood without fear of marking the metal
