Sledge Brothers., or simply Sledge Bros. are large versions of Hammer Brothers that throw sledge hammers.

The Sledge Bros. first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3 in Giant Land, were they replaced Hammer Bros. in the area's levels and map. If a Sledge Bro. sees Mario or Luigi, it will try to attack them by throwing sledge hammers at them; additionally, whenever a Sledge Bro. jumps and lands on the ground, it creates a miniature earthquake which can paralyze Mario. To defeat a Sledge Bro., Mario could either jump on it, hit it with a Shell, or hit it with a fireball as Fire Mario.

In Yoshi's Safari, Sledge Bros. appeared as mini-bosses who would attack Mario and Yoshi by throwing sledge hammers at him; a Sledge Bro. could also immobilize Mario and Yoshi by stomping the ground. A Sledge Bro. must by hit multiple times with Mario's Super Scope to defeat it in Yoshi's Safari. To avoid being hit, Mario must shoot the sledge hammers that the Sledge Bro. threw to prevent from being hurt.
