Smash it with a Hammer! Dark Moon’s Steel Pipe Hammer is a 65 cm latex and foam pipe, shaped into an improvised bludgeoning weapon. This product is handpainted and intricately sculpted to look like steel with a worn, rusted finish. Fine tread embellishments paired with a tee fitting and end caps give the pipe its hammer-like shape, featuring a 23 cm long head perfect for undead headshots. Comfortable suede leather provides a secure grip, wrapped around the bottom 15 cm long. The Steel Pipe Hammer is not hollow, but is constructed from EVA foam around a solid 8 mm fibreglass rod. This design is ultimately made with safety in mind. It is finished with a durable layer of latex to prevent shredding and to give it a realistic, smooth surface. More than a Pipe An example of a weapon you might find after the world-as-we-know-it ends Used as protection when you’ve inevitably run out of bullets for your gun Pipes are straight cylinders typically used to move liquids and gases, and require fittings such and elbows, tees, and couplings An ironic weapon of choice for many LARPers who have built boffers with plumbing supplies over the years Strong latex coating with a round fibreglass core Strong Kevlar core tip protection Made from durable closed cell foam that does not shred High safety, approved by the top organizations All latex-coated weapons need a certain degree of maintenance. For this we recommend using maintenance silicone, which can be purchased separately in the LARP Accessories section. Epic Armoury Maintenance Silicone is an easy spray-on application, 100% pure and acid-free making it safe to apply. We recommend using Maintenance Silicone on a regular basis. It maintains the latex-coat’s flexibility and prevents it from drying out, keeping the product wear and tear resistant.Store your latex weapons flat or on its pommel--NEVER on its tip. Use a simple sheet or towel lining to prevent it from touching a plastic or rubber surface to prevent your weapon from adhering to other products. Keep your weapons in a cool, dry environment.
