A mallet is used instead of a hammer primarily to prevent damage to the surface of the material being struck. Unlike a hammer, which typically has a hard metal head, a mallet usually has a softer head made of rubber, wood, or plastic, making it ideal for tasks that require a gentler impact. This is particularly important in woodworking or when working with delicate materials, where a hammer could leave marks or cause splits. Additionally, mallets provide better control for tasks like assembling joints without marring the surfaces.
