The men's hammer throw event at the 1963 Summer Universiade was held at the Estádio Olímpico Monumental in Porto Alegre in September 1963.

The winning margin was 4 cm which was also the winning margin in this event at the 1959 edition of these games. As of 2024, these remain the only two occasions where the men's hammer throw has been won by such a narrow margin.
