In using this type of beater, small amounts of metal are forced into the spaces created by the cross milling. They can also be used on cold aluminium but working on sheet steel will be quicker if heat is applied to the area. Whenever possible, such beating should be carried out on the inside of the panel to minimise resurfacing needed prior to painting. Sykes-Pickavant does not recommend using the same individual tools on aluminium and steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePanel Beater Double Ended Shrinking Hammer 05280000\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedium-weight, flat face shrinking hammer, specifically designed for panel beating on slightly stretched areas of metal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecially designed cross milled heads improves stretched areas by forcing small amounts of metal into spaces created by cross milling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound Face: 41mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare Face: 38m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead Width: 97mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.425kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplacement shafts available \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/05602000?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=056020\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003e05602000\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sykes Pickavant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45452247040279,"sku":"05280000","price":41.15,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8619\/3431\/files\/05280000WEB.jpg?v=1689842943","url":"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/5280000-panel-beater-double-ended-shrinking-hammer","provider":"Sykes Pickavant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
