A hammer that weighs 1 kilograms (kg) is a relatively lightweight hammer. Hammers come in various sizes and weights, and a 0.5 kg hammer would be suitable for lighter tasks, such as hanging pictures, assembling furniture, or other light carpentry work. Heavier hammers are typically used for more demanding tasks, such as framing or demolition work, while lighter hammers are used for precision work or when less force is required.
