HOW TO USE:

• Prepare Work Area: Ensure your workpiece is securely clamped or held stable on a sturdy surface. Make sure you have clear access to the area you intend to cut or shape.
• Wear Safety Gear: Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, especially safety goggles, to protect your eyes from flying debris. Gloves may also be beneficial for grip and hand protection.
• Position the Chisel: Place the cutting edge of the chisel against the metal workpiece at the desired cutting line or angle. Ensure the chisel is held firmly and at the correct orientation for the cut you wish to make.
• Strike with a Hammer: Using a hammer (preferably a ball-peen hammer or engineers’ hammer), strike the parabolic head of the chisel with controlled force. Adjust the force of the strike based on the type of metal and the depth of cut required.
• Monitor Progress: Observe the cut as you go. For longer cuts, you may need to reposition the chisel incrementally along the line and continue striking.
• Clean Up: Once the cutting or shaping is complete, remove any burrs or sharp edges from the workpiece as needed. Store the chisel in a clean, dry place.

BENEFITS OF USING MAYHEW 1/2-13MM BLADE WIDTH LONG COLD CHISEL (10207):

• Provides accurate and controlled metal cutting: Ideal for precise adjustments or material removal.
• Offers a long service life: Due to its alloy steel construction and heat-treated properties.
• Contributes to safer operations: Through its specialized head design that minimizes material deformation upon striking.
• Maintains its appearance and functional integrity: Longer thanks to robust rust protection.
• Delivers consistent performance: As a product manufactured to high industry standards.

FEATURES:

• Alloy Steel Construction: Crafted from high-grade alloy steel, providing strength and resilience for demanding metalworking tasks.
• Full Shank Heat-Treated: The entire shank of the chisel undergoes a heat-treatment process, enhancing its overall toughness and resistance to bending or breaking.
• Hexagonal Shank Design: Features a 7/16-inch hexagonal body size, offering a secure grip and preventing rolling when laid down.
• Beveled Tip: The cutting edge is ground to a specific bevel, optimizing its ability to cut and shear through metal efficiently.
• Compliance with Standards: Manufactured to meet or exceed ASME B107.401 and US government GGG-C-313D standards, assuring quality and performance.
