Apex 82266 Cold Chisel Alloy Steel 7 Inches

Product Description

The APEX 82266 is a phosphate-coated alloy steel cold chisel designed for cutting through metal in demanding trade environments. At 7 inches in length, it is sized for general-purpose work on rivets, stuck fasteners, bolts, and nuts that resist standard removal methods. The work end features a precision-hardened cutting point for edge retention under repeated strikes, while the back end is softened and tapered to reduce chipping and mushrooming from hammer blows. This chisel is sold individually and is a practical hand-tool choice for mechanics, ironworkers, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians.

The 82266 is suited for use in automotive, industrial, and mechanical maintenance applications where fastener removal or metal cutting is required. It performs well when clearing seized or damaged hardware that cannot be removed by wrenching alone. The 7-inch length provides a workable reach without sacrificing control during strikes. Its phosphate coating offers a degree of surface protection against corrosion and wear during storage and use.

Key Features

• Precision-hardened cutting point for sustained edge performance under impact
• Softened and tapered strike end reduces chipping and mushrooming over time
• Phosphate coating provides basic corrosion resistance
• Alloy steel construction for strength and durability under repeated hammer blows
• 7-inch length suits general-purpose fastener cutting and metal removal tasks

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose cold chisel suitable for metal-cutting and fastener removal tasks across automotive, mechanical, and industrial maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Cold chisels are typically used by mechanics, pipefitters, ironworkers, and maintenance technicians. Always wear appropriate eye protection when striking a chisel, as metal fragments can dislodge at high velocity. Inspect the strike end before each use and replace the chisel if the back end shows significant mushrooming or cracking. Use with a ball-peen or engineer's hammer appropriate to the task.
