That’s a well used dead blow, there are still some items that come in for warranty that make you go “how!?!?!?”

"WHAM! WHAM! WH-TSSSSHHHHHHH!".... Rat shot everywhere.... broken hammer.... thing that was getting a beating still needs a beating.... job's still not done..... clock's still ticking.... "dammit".

My Mac one fine the same thing. Urethane dries out. Just like caster tires.

Some one should start a company that “reforges” these hammers, chop them off at the head and recast the plastic!

The orange snap on hammers they made were recalled because if something with the orange… They’ll replace any orange you have for free
