Best Answer

a standard claw hammer weighs 16 ozs. after that depending on the manufacturer 21 or 24 ozs. Short handled Club Hammers are in the region of 40 ozs and 64 ozs. Long handle sledge hammers about 112 ozs and 224 ozs. But the answer may depend on the manufacturer and the country of origin

There are many different types of hammer for many different purposes, but if you are referring to a regular carpenter's claw hammer, then the recommended weight of hammer head to use for most purposes is 20 ounces (about half a kilo). For lighter work, for example driving home panel pins and small tacks, a lighter hammer head of 16 ounces is recommended.
