rubber mallet
Non-marring striking tool
A rubber mallet is a hammer with a head made of rubber rather than metal, used when a softer blow is needed—to tap pieces together without marring surfaces, drive chisels with controlled force, or seat tiles and flooring.
The rubber absorbs impact that would dent or damage with a steel hammer: Use a rubber mallet so you don't scratch the wood.
