HALDER SIMPLEX

HALDER SIMPLEX is a line of soft-face hammers and mallets manufactured by Erwin Halder KG, a German tooling company founded in 1938 and based in Achstetten, Germany. The SIMPLEX brand specifically refers to a modular hammer system in which the head, handle, and striking faces are separate components. The cast iron head houses two replaceable inserts, allowing one tool to present different face materials and hardnesses on either side. This modularity is the defining characteristic of the line: rather than replacing an entire hammer when a face wears or a handle breaks, users replace only the affected part. The system includes plastic tips in hard and medium durometers, rubber tips in hard and medium durometers, and handles in multiple lengths matched to head weights. Head weights in the supplied range run from 12 oz to 3 1/2 lb, with tip diameters from 1 1/8 in to 2 23/64 in and overall lengths from 11 1/2 in to 16 in. The striking faces are non-marring, which makes the hammers suitable for assembly, maintenance, and metalworking tasks where a steel hammer would damage the workpiece or the tooling. The cast iron head provides mass and durability, while the replaceable inserts absorb impact and distribute force across the contact area. Replacement faces attach via a clamping-head design that secures the insert to the hammer head without adhesives or special tools. Handles are available as separate line items, so a worn or broken handle does not require discarding the head or the inserts. 3G Electric supplies the HALDER SIMPLEX line as individual SKUs, including complete hammers, replacement handles, and replacement faces and tips. The catalog covers the common head weights and face configurations, along with the matching spare parts for each. Because the system is modular, buyers can order a hammer and the specific replacement inserts or handles they need for their application, rather than replacing the entire tool. 3G Electric ships these products globally and provides logistics support for orders of any size. The product data includes manufacturer part numbers, head weights, tip diameters, overall lengths, and face types, so procurement and maintenance teams can match replacements to existing tools without ambiguity. For plant engineers and maintenance managers, the practical value of the SIMPLEX system is that it reduces the number of distinct hammers needed on a bench or in a tool crib. A single cast iron head with two different inserts covers two face types, and the inserts can be swapped as they wear. The replacement parts are cataloged separately, which simplifies reordering and inventory. The line is used in industrial assembly, metalworking, and general maintenance, wherever a non-marring strike is required and where tool downtime from a worn face or broken handle needs to be minimized. 3G Electric stocks the SIMPLEX hammers, handles, and replacement tips as separate SKUs, with specifications listed for each. The catalog entries include the manufacturer part number, head weight, tip diameter, overall length, and face type, so buyers can verify compatibility before ordering. For example, the 2 23/64 in medium rubber clamping-head tip (MPN 3202060) is listed as compatible with the 3 1/2 lb hammer (SKU 3ZLL5). This level of detail supports maintenance planning and spare-parts inventory management. 3G Electric provides global shipping and logistics support for these products, and the catalog is structured so that complete tools and spare parts can be ordered together or separately.

Common Applications

  • Industrial assembly — HALDER SIMPLEX 12 oz soft-face hammer (MPN 3026030) for seating small components without marring.
  • Metalworking — HALDER SIMPLEX 2 1/2 lb hammer (MPN 3026050) for aligning sheet metal and fixtures during fabrication.
  • Maintenance — HALDER SIMPLEX 3 1/2 lb hammer (MPN 3026060) for tapping bearings and bushings into place.
  • Tool crib inventory — replacement handles (MPNs 3244030–3244060) to restore worn SIMPLEX hammers without full replacement.
  • Assembly with soft contact — medium rubber clamping-head tip (MPN 3202060) on 3 1/2 lb hammer for delicate surfaces.
  • General plant use — hard/medium face configuration on SIMPLEX hammers for two strike options in one tool.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about HALDER SIMPLEX from 3G Electric.

What is the HALDER SIMPLEX hammer system and how does it differ from a standard soft-face mallet?

The HALDER SIMPLEX system uses a cast iron head that accepts two replaceable inserts, one on each striking face. The inserts are available in plastic and rubber, in hard and medium durometers. Unlike a standard soft-face mallet, where the entire tool is replaced when a face wears out, the SIMPLEX design allows individual faces and handles to be replaced. This reduces long-term tooling costs and allows a single hammer to cover multiple face types by swapping inserts. The inserts attach via a clamping-head mechanism, and replacement handles are also available as separate SKUs.

What head weights and tip diameters are available in the HALDER SIMPLEX line from 3G Electric?

The supplied range includes head weights of 12 oz, 2 1/2 lb, and 3 1/2 lb. Tip diameters range from 1 1/8 in on the 12 oz model to 2 23/64 in on the replacement rubber tip for the 3 1/2 lb hammer. Overall lengths run from 11 1/2 in to 16 in. The hammers are configured with hard/medium face types, and replacement tips are available in plastic and rubber. Specific part numbers include 3026030 (12 oz), 3026050 (2 1/2 lb), and 3026060 (3 1/2 lb).

How do I identify the correct replacement handle for my HALDER SIMPLEX hammer?

Replacement handles are listed with manufacturer part numbers 3244030, 3244040, 3244050, and 3244060. These correspond to different hammer sizes in the SIMPLEX line. To select the correct handle, match the part number to the head weight and overall length of your existing hammer. The catalog entries for each handle include the MPN and are listed as replacement parts for HALDER SIMPLEX hammers. If you have the original hammer's MPN, you can cross-reference it to the handle SKU. 3G Electric lists these handles as separate line items so they can be ordered independently.

What is the difference between the hard and medium durometer tips on HALDER SIMPLEX hammers?

The durometer refers to the hardness of the plastic or rubber insert. Hard tips transmit more force and are used where a firmer strike is needed, while medium tips absorb more impact and are less likely to mark the workpiece. The hammers in the supplied range are configured with one hard and one medium face, giving two options in a single tool. Replacement tips are available in both durometers. For example, the 2 23/64 in rubber clamping-head tip (MPN 3202060) is a medium-duty replacement face compatible with the 3 1/2 lb hammer (SKU 3ZLL5).

Are replacement faces and tips for HALDER SIMPLEX hammers available separately?

Yes. 3G Electric lists replacement faces and tips as separate SKUs. The supplied example is the 2 23/64 in medium rubber clamping-head tip (MPN 3202060), which is compatible with the 3 1/2 lb SIMPLEX hammer (SKU 3ZLL5). The clamping-head attachment secures the tip to the cast iron head without adhesives. When ordering, verify the tip diameter and attachment type match your hammer model. The catalog entries include the compatible hammer SKU where applicable, so you can confirm fit before purchase.

What applications are HALDER SIMPLEX soft-face hammers used for?

These hammers are used in industrial assembly, metalworking, and maintenance tasks where a non-marring strike is required. Typical uses include seating parts without damaging finished surfaces, tapping components into alignment, and striking tooling or fixtures that would be marked by a steel hammer. The replaceable faces allow one hammer to be used across different materials and tasks by swapping inserts. The cast iron head provides sufficient mass for controlled blows, while the plastic or rubber inserts absorb impact. The modular design also means a worn face or broken handle can be replaced without discarding the entire tool.
