Apex 82261 Cold Chisel Alloy Steel 4.75 Inches

Product Description

The APEX 82261 is a phosphate-coated alloy steel cold chisel designed for cutting through metal in demanding trade applications. At 4.75 inches in length and weighing 0.08 pounds, it is sized for controlled, precise work on stuck or damaged fasteners including rivets, bolts, and nuts. The cutting end features a precision-hardened point engineered to hold an edge under impact. The strike end is softened and tapered, a design that reduces chipping and mushrooming during repeated hammer blows. This chisel is built for professional use where damaged hardware must be removed without alternatives.

This cold chisel is suited for mechanical, plumbing, and general trade work where fastener removal or metal cutting is required. It performs in situations where wrenches and sockets cannot free a seized or damaged fastener. The 4.75-inch length makes it practical for tight access areas and bench work alike. Professionals in automotive, HVAC, plumbing, and industrial maintenance will find it useful as a standard part of their hand tool inventory.

Installation Notes

Cold chisels are driven with a ball-peen or club hammer by a qualified tradesperson. Always wear appropriate eye protection when striking a chisel, as metal fragments can eject at high velocity. Inspect the strike end before each use and replace the chisel if the end shows significant mushrooming. Keep hands and fingers clear of the cutting edge and work surface during use.
