Chisel MODECO MN-63-482 flat locksmith chisel with guard 19x305 mm

MODECO MN-63-482 flat locksmith chisel with guard 19x305 mm is a hand tool designed for metalworking and general locksmith tasks. The chisel features a straight cutting edge and a robust blade profile suitable for cutting, shaping and removing metal and other hard materials. A protective guard is fitted near the handle to reduce the risk of slipping during striking and to protect the blade and handle during storage and transport.

Advantages

The chisel combines a hardened steel blade and a consistent flat geometry to provide precise material removal and long service life. The integrated guard improves safety by limiting hand movement toward the striking zone and shielding the handle. Its overall length and blade width offer a balance between reach and control, making it suitable for confined spaces and general workshop use.

• Cutting and shaping sheet metal and small metal parts

• General locksmith and metal repair tasks
• Use in workshops, construction sites and maintenance work

Key specifications

• Blade type: flat/straight cutting edge
• Working width: 19 mm
• Overall length: 305 mm

How to use

Position the chisel cutting edge against the workpiece at the required angle and hold the handle firmly with one hand while placing the other hand behind the guard or using a hammer to strike the chisel head. Apply controlled striking force; increase impact progressively rather than using excessive force in a single blow. Keep the cutting edge aligned with the intended cut line and maintain steady support of the workpiece to avoid slippage. After use, wipe the blade clean and store the chisel with the guard covering the handle area.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Ensure the striking hammer is suitable for chiselling and in good condition. Regularly inspect and, if necessary, re-sharpen the cutting edge following safe sharpening practices to maintain performance.
