Flat Chisel with Forged Guard MODECO 500 x 19 mm MN-63-455

Flat Chisel with Forged Guard MODECO 500 x 19 mm MN-63-455 is a hand tool designed for cutting, carving and splitting metal and masonry materials. The chisel features a straight cutting edge and a forged protective guard that reinforces the striking area, improving resistance to deformation during repeated hammer impacts. Its 500 mm overall length and 19 mm blade width provide reach and a focused cutting surface for demolition, shaping and material removal tasks in construction, repair and workshop environments.

Advantages

The forged protective guard increases the tool’s durability by reinforcing the strike zone and reducing the risk of mushrooming. The straight, flat cutting face offers precise material removal and controlled chipping. A 500 mm length gives greater reach for working in deeper joints or hard-to-reach spots while the 19 mm blade width concentrates force for efficient cutting. The tool is suitable for use with standard hand hammers and is built to withstand repeated striking under typical construction and metalworking conditions.

Suitable for

• Cutting and splitting metal components
• Removing mortar, tiles and plaster in demolition work
• Shaping and trimming steel or iron parts
• General chipping and material removal in workshops and construction sites

Key specifications

• Overall length: 500 mm
• Blade width: 19 mm
• Tool type: flat chisel with protective guard
• Construction: forged striking area for increased strength
• Intended use: compatible with hand hammer striking

How to use

Position the flat chisel with the cutting edge against the material at the desired angle and apply controlled strikes to the butt end with a suitable hand hammer. Use repeated, measured blows rather than excessive force to reduce the risk of chisel damage and to maintain control over the cutting action. Ensure the forged guard faces the hammer impact to protect the striking area. Keep hands clear of the striking zone and adjust hand placement along the shaft for balance and reach when working in confined or elevated positions.

Usage recommendations

Before use, inspect the chisel for cracks, excessive wear or a deformed striking surface. Use personal protective equipment including safety glasses, gloves and protective footwear. Maintain the cutting edge by occasional light dressing with a file or grinding stone; do not overheat metal when dressing. Store the chisel in a dry place and avoid striking with hardened or inappropriate hammers that can damage the guard or blade.
