Metalworking chisel Proline 81732 — single-piece hand chisel for metalworking

Proline 81732 metalworking chisel is a single-piece hand chisel designed for cutting, shaping and removing metal material. Machined from a single bar, the tool provides a continuous steel body from blade to striking face for reliable force transfer during manual metalworking. Supplied as one chisel per pack, it is intended for workshop and repair use where controlled chipping, seam removal and profile shaping of metal parts are required. Use with an appropriate hammer and personal protective equipment.

Advantages

The single-piece construction reduces the risk of head loosening and improves durability under repeated hammer blows. A hardened cutting edge maintains shape and wear resistance during chipping and trimming operations. The compact length and balanced weight allow for controlled strikes and precise material removal. The plain steel finish is practical for workshop use and simple to maintain.

Suitable for

• Removing weld seams and slag from steel and iron components
• Manual chipping and cutting of sheet metal and castings
• Shaping and trimming metal edges and joints in repair work
• General maintenance tasks in automotive and metalworking workshops

Key specifications

• Single-piece forged steel construction for improved strength
• Hardened cutting edge for wear resistance during chipping
• Flat blade profile suitable for general metal cutting and seam removal
• Striking face designed for use with hand hammers
• Compact, hand-held size for controlled manual operation

How to use

Secure the workpiece before starting to ensure safe and accurate chiselling. Position the chisel blade against the metal surface at the required angle and strike the chisel's striking face with a suitable hand hammer. Use controlled, steady blows to remove material; adjust the blade angle to change the chip size or cut direction. Periodically inspect the cutting edge and re-sharpen or re-harden as necessary according to workshop practice. Always wear safety glasses, gloves and hearing protection when chiselling.

Usage recommendations

For effective and safe use, select a hammer appropriate to the chisel size and task, keep the cutting edge properly maintained, and avoid using the tool on hardened or temper-sensitive materials without prior testing. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion and inspect before each use.
