The Wiha 832-13 Black Blue is a compact mallet designed for a wide range of light construction and finishing tasks. It features a powder-coated malleable cast iron housing with grooves to secure the faces and handle, and a hickory shaft with an ergonomic, non-slip profile. The tool weighs approximately 640 g and combines blue and black elastomer/rubber striking faces for different impact characteristics. The product meets GS safety testing standards.

Advantages

The powder-coated malleable cast iron housing provides durable protection and stable retention of the faces and handle. The hickory handle offers good shock absorption and an ergonomic non-slip grip for better control. Two types of faces—soft blue elastomer and medium-soft black caoutchouc—allow selection of an appropriate striking surface for delicate or medium-impact work. GS safety testing indicates compliance with recognized safety requirements.

Key specifications

How to use

Select the striking face appropriate for the task (blue for softer impact, black for medium impact). Ensure the faces and handle are properly seated in the grooved housing before use. Grip the hickory handle firmly with the ergonomic profile to maintain control. Use measured strikes suitable to the material being worked on, avoiding excessive force that could damage the workpiece or the faces. After use, inspect the faces and handle for wear and replace components if deteriorated.

Recommendations

For best results, use the blue elastomer face on delicate surfaces or when minimizing marring is important; use the black caoutchouc face for tasks requiring slightly firmer blows. Store the mallet in a dry place to protect the hickory handle and prevent corrosion of the housing. Regularly check that faces are securely clamped in the housing before each use.
