Ball peen hammers, also known as ball pein hammers, machinist's hammers or engineer's hammers, are commonly used in metalwork. The rounded head is used to shape and smooth metal surfaces, set rivets, and drive punches and chisels. The process of hammering a metal surface to improve its properties is called peening.
