Common questions
Why 5" instead of 4" or 6"?
A 5" wipes more per pass than a 4" and is less floppy in corners than a 6". It is a common width for tape and second coats.
What is the Hammer Head® for?
Setting a popped fastener below flush with the steel butt, mid-coat, without changing tools.
How is it different from the 06779 and 06778?
The 06771 is carbon steel with a Hammer Head®. The 06779 is one-piece stainless. The 06778 is cushioned double-hollow-ground stainless.
Can it do fill coats?
No. A 5" is a tape and second-coat width. Fill and skim coats need 8" to 12".
