Hang and trim drywall in one tool with the OX Pro 14oz Drywall Hammer. The hatchet-style head pairs a milled striking face for setting gypsum nails without slipping with a sharpened hatchet edge for trimming sheetrock to fit — the dedicated tool drywall hangers reach for instead of carrying a claw hammer plus a utility knife.

Model: OX-P082614 · Head Weight: 14 oz · Vendor: OX

Why a Drywall Hammer?

• Milled striking face: the cross-hatched face grips nail heads — you can set drywall nails dimpled below the paper without bending or skating across the face like a smooth claw hammer would
• Hatchet edge: sharpened opposite face cuts sheetrock to fit, scores edges for snapping, and breaks loose old drywall during demo
• 14oz head: the standard weight for production drywall hanging — light enough to swing all day, heavy enough to set nails in two strikes
• OX Pro construction: drop-forged head, fiberglass shock-absorbing handle — built for daily-use drywall crews, not the weekend remodel
• Backed by OX: manufacturer warranty per OX Tools’ standard policy

Best For

• Drywall hanging: setting nails on standard 1/2″ and 5/8″ gypsum board panels — the milled face dimples without tearing the paper
• Sheetrock trimming: field-cutting full sheets to width, scoring inside corners, breaking off oversize pieces
• Drywall demolition: hatchet edge bites through paper and scores the gypsum core for clean tear-out
• Patch work: the milled face is forgiving on small repair pieces where a smooth claw hammer would slip
• Drywall crews on production work: hangers, finishers, and remodel pros who need both functions in one tool

Care & Use

• Inspect the hatchet edge between jobs — redress with a fine file if it dulls, but don’t grind — aggressive grinding overheats the steel and ruins the temper
• Wear safety glasses with side shields — gypsum dust and the occasional flying nail head are real eye hazards on drywall demo
• Keep the milled face clean — embedded paint chips and gypsum dust hurt nail-grip; wire-brush periodically
• Store with the hatchet edge covered — the cutting edge is sharp enough to cut hands or other tools in the bag
• Inspect the handle-to-head joint at the start of each season — replace if the head is loose, not retighten
