Frequently asked questions
What the Hammer icon means and where it's used, then how to install, style, label and license it.
The hammer icon represents a fundamental tool used in construction, DIY projects, and various forms of creative expression. It symbolizes the ability to build, create, and modify objects. The hammer has been a essential tool throughout human history, with its origins dating back to ancient civilizations.
In real-world applications, the hammer icon appears in software related to construction, architecture, and engineering, such as Autodesk and SketchUp. It's also commonly used in DIY and home improvement platforms like Home Depot and Lowe's.
From a UX perspective, the hammer icon communicates creation, modification, and control. It helps users understand that a particular tool or feature allows them to edit or manipulate objects. The icon's presence can also evoke feelings of empowerment and creativity, encouraging users to engage with interactive elements.
Hammer is one of 313 icons in Prime Icons, made by PrimeTek and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid.
Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds HammerIcon to components/icons/prime-hammer.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.
Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed HammerIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.
Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.
With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Hammer icon, or any of 313 Prime Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.
It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.
Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.
Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.
Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Hammer", so screen readers say what it does.
Yes. HammerIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <HammerIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.
Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.
Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.
No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Prime Icons, PrimeTek and the license.
Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
