Flat Cold Chisel with Forged Guard MODECO MN-63-453 400 x 19 mm

Flat Cold Chisel with Forged Guard MODECO MN-63-453 400 x 19 mm is a hand tool designed for cutting, splitting and shaping metal and masonry. The chisel features a flat cutting edge and a forged guard that protects the handle area from repeated hammer impacts. Constructed from hardened steel, the tool is intended for use in workshop, construction and repair environments where precise chipping or removal of material is required.

Advantages

The chisel's hardened steel blade provides wear resistance and maintains a cutting edge under repeated strikes. A forged guard increases durability and reduces the risk of handle deformation from hammer blows. Its 400 x 19 mm dimensions deliver reach and leverage for working on deeper joints or thicker sections of material while preserving control during manual use. The flat profile allows even, controlled removal of material from metal and masonry surfaces.

Suitable for

• Cutting and splitting metal pieces and rivets
• Chipping mortar, brick and concrete joints
• Removing weld spatter and excess material
• Shaping sheet metal edges and seams
• General repair and workshop tasks requiring manual chipping

Key specifications

• Overall length: 400 mm
• Blade width: 19 mm
• Material: hardened steel
• Guard type: forged impact guard
• Tool profile: flat chisel with straight cutting edge

How to use

Hold the flat cold chisel with a secure grip on the handle or the shank behind the guard, positioning the cutting edge against the workpiece at the required angle. Strike the chisel head with an appropriate hammer, applying controlled impacts to remove material in small increments. For metal work use steady, firm blows near the blade; for masonry start with lighter taps and increase force as needed to avoid uncontrolled breakage. After use, inspect the cutting edge for burrs or deformation and dress or grind the edge as necessary to restore its profile.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including safety glasses and gloves. Use a hammer sized to the task and avoid excessive strikes that could fracture the chisel or damage the guard. Store the chisel in a dry place and protect the cutting edge to maintain performance and service life.
