Williams Comfort Products C-42-TH Cape Chisel

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS C-42-TH is a cape chisel designed for precision metalworking tasks common in trade environments. Cape chisels feature a narrow cutting edge wider than the shank, making them well-suited for cutting keyways, slots, and grooves in metal stock. At 0.15 pounds, the C-42-TH is a lightweight hand tool that delivers controlled cutting force without bulk. It is sized at 0.25 inches and sold as an individual unit. Machinists, maintenance mechanics, and industrial tradespeople keep cape chisels on hand for layout and material removal work that standard flat chisels cannot access.

The C-42-TH is appropriate for general metalworking, maintenance, and repair applications in shops, plants, and field service settings. The narrow 0.25-inch cutting geometry allows access to confined areas such as keyseats and narrow channels in shafts, housings, and structural steel. It is a single-unit purchase suited for individual tool kit builds or bench stock replenishment.

Key Features

• Narrow cape-style cutting edge for keyway and slot work in metal
• 0.25-inch cutting width for precise, controlled material removal

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Cape chisels are struck with a ball-peen or engineers hammer and should never be struck with a claw hammer. Inspect the striking face and cutting edge before use and discard any chisel showing mushrooming, cracking, or chipping. Eye protection is required during chiseling operations per standard shop safety practice. Keep the cutting edge dressed and sharp to maintain control and reduce the force required per strike.
