scope:

This Standard provides safety requirements for the design, construction, testing, and use of riveting, scaling and tinner′ setting hammers described below. The names given are those generally recognized; styles are not limited to those named or illustrated (see Figs. 1, 2, and 3).

(a) Riveting hammers: Intended specifically for driving, spreading, and setting unhardened rivets in hardened materials (also called tinner′s or machinists′ riveting hammers).

(b) Scaling hammers: Intended specifically for removing scale, paint, welding flux, rust, or other similar flaking material from the surface of unhardened metal (also called chipping hammers).
