A Spike Maul is a type of hand tool used to drive railroad spikes in railroad track work. Spike mauls are akin to the sledge hammer, typically weighing from 8 to 12 pounds (3.6 to 5.4 kg) with a 30 to 36 inches (76 to 91 cm) long handle. They have an elongated double faced hardened steel head. The head is typically over 12 inches (30 cm) long to allow the user to drive spikes on the opposite side of the rail without breaking the handle.

Spike mauls are akin to the sledge hammer, typically weighing from 8 to 12 pounds (3.6 to 5.4 kg) with a 30 to 36 inches (76 to 91 cm) long handle. They have an elongated double faced hardened steel head. The head is typically over 12 inches (30 cm) long to allow the user to drive spikes on the opposite side of the rail without breaking the handle. Some spike mauls have symmetrical heads, but most have a slightly longer thinner side and a shorter larger diameter side of equal weight. The long side allows a user to spike over abnormally tall rails, and to drive spikes down next to highway crossing planks. The shorter side provides more surface area which requires less accuracy for normal spiking.
