Chisel Irwin narrow 400 x 25 mm with SDS-max shank model 10502188

Narrow chisel Irwin 400 x 25 mm with SDS-max shank (model 10502188) is a purpose-built tool for use with SDS-max rotary hammers and demolition hammers. The 25 mm blade width and 400 mm length provide a slim profile for creating narrow channels, detailed material removal and precise chiselling in concrete, masonry and stone. The SDS-max shank ensures secure coupling with compatible hammer drills and helps transmit impact energy efficiently for steady performance during heavy-duty and finishing tasks.

Advantages

The chisel features a narrow cross-section for access to confined areas and reduced material removal per pass, enabling controlled work in grooves and joints. The hardened steel blade maintains edge integrity under repeated impact, while the SDS-max shank design offers fast, tool-free insertion and reliable retention in compatible rotary hammers. Its 400 mm length balances reach and control for both overhead and floor work.

Suitable for

• Chiselling narrow channels and grooves in concrete and masonry
• Removing tile adhesive, mortar and thin layers of render
• Detail removal around pipes, conduits and window/door frames
• Controlled demolition where precision is required

Key specifications

• Blade width: 25 mm
• Overall length: 400 mm
• Shank type: SDS-max
• Material: hardened steel blade for impact resistance
• Compatible with: SDS-max rotary hammers and demolition hammers

How to use

Fit the chisel into the SDS-max chuck of a compatible rotary hammer according to the tool manufacturer's instructions, ensuring secure seating before operation. Hold the tool firmly with both hands and position the chisel tip on the work surface. Start at low to moderate impact settings to establish the cut, then increase as appropriate for the material and task. Use controlled, steady pressure—allow the hammer to deliver the impacts rather than forcing the chisel—to achieve accurate grooves and minimise tool wear. Inspect the chisel regularly and replace it if significant wear, deformation or cracking appears.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, hearing protection and dust control measures. Match chisel width and length to the specific task for best results, and avoid excessive lateral bending or levering of the chisel to prevent premature damage.
