What Customers Are Saying
The Blue Hawk Black Tapping Block is a useful tool for installing laminate flooring, but it has some durability issues. Many found the block to be fragile and prone to cracking or breaking, especially when used with a hard mallet or for larger projects. However, when used carefully with a rubber mallet, the block was effective at securing the flooring without damage. The tapping block may work well for small jobs, but may not be durable enough for professional or large-scale installations.

I purchased the tapping block as a replacement for another recently purchased one that broke in 2 pieces. It cost me an extra day to install my flooring project because of having to stop and go buy a replacement.

Worth it
Would RecommendDoes the job it was designed for and well. Makes install go faster.
Good for tight spaces
Would RecommendIt’s good for fitting into tight spaces. However, block itself is too small and clumsy if you have large hands.
Solid block that makes installation easier
Would RecommendThis product was exactly what I needed and helped me complete a DIY vinyl plank floor installation. It was solid and was easy to use. I had multiple spots where the planks were not tight and this block helped ensure I closed the gap without breaking the edge. I was worried this would be too flimsy but that was not the case. It was solid and provided enough of a surface for a nice tap of my rubber mallet. Without this block my job would have taken more time and likely had more gaps.
Worth it / as advertised
Would RecommendThe tapping block worked exactly as expected. None of my vinyl tiles were damaged throughout the installation.
It works well unless it breaks on you
Everything was going great, until the block broke. It helped me with a laminate floor. Even though I was using a rubber mallet, it still broke
Great for floors
Would RecommendThis is a must when installing click and lock flooring
Perfect tool for the flooring either lvtwinstalati
Very handy tools for the flooring job, every flooring installer need to have it
Just a bit too thin. Would be better if fatter
Would RecommendGood use. 1 of 2 blocks cracked. Works well with the vinyl flooring I am putting down. Does not break the seals. OK for a general block. Would have preferred a tapping block from the manufacturer but they did not supply or sell one. Had a previous tapping block from years ago that did not work as well.
