A detailed buying guide: how to choose a cold chisel and punch.
Cold chisels and punches are used to cut metal, shear off rusted bolts and rivets, chase channels in concrete and stone, mark hole centres and drive out pins. This section includes engineer's and masonry chisels, centre punches, pin punches and sets. Chisels for rotary hammers are listed under consumables: how to choose a rotary hammer chisel.
An engineer's chisel cuts metal, a masonry chisel cuts concrete and brick, a centre punch marks the drilling point with its sharp tip, and a pin punch drives out pins and rivets.
A wide edge removes material faster, while a narrow one is more precise. A long chisel keeps your hand away from the striking point, and for punches the tip diameter matters.
The working tip should be hardened, while the striking head is softer so that it does not shatter. Chrome vanadium steel holds its edge for a long time. Read hand tool materials, hardness, coatings and ergonomics.
Repeated blows mushroom and crack the head, so grind it back from time to time. Models with a rubber guard protect your hand from a missed hammer blow.
A set usually includes several chisels, a centre punch and pin punches of different diameters, which is convenient for car service and workshops.
Fragments of metal and stone fly off at high speed, so always wear safety glasses: how to choose safety glasses.
At ToolsArmenia you can choose a cold chisel, centre punch, pin punch or set by type, size and steel.
