SDS Plus Impact Chisel | Heavy-duty demolition, concrete/brick breaking | - Handle: 40Cr alloy steel (hardness 52-56 HRC▲▲▲) - Tip: Tungsten carbide groove edge (ASTM C136: 300 cycles▲▲▲) - SDS Plus connection (5000 N impact resistance▲▲▲) | ▲▲▲ Durability: Outperforms standard steel by 20% Compatibility with hammer drills Efficient mortar raking | Heavier than manual chisels Higher cost due to tungsten carbide |
Standard Steel Chisel | Light construction, manual tasks | - Handle: Carbon steel (hardness 45 HRC) - Tip: Carbon steel (ASTM C136: 100 cycles) | Affordable Lightweight for manual use Easy to sharpen | Low wear resistance Not impact-resistant Limited to soft materials |
Carbide-Tipped Chisel (Non-SDS) | Moderate masonry, manual hammering | - Tip: Tungsten carbide (ASTM C136: 200 cycles▲) - Handle: Stainless steel (corrosion resistance ASTM A268) | Longer lifespan than steel tips Corrosion-resistant handle | Requires manual hammering Brittle under heavy impact |
Demolition Chisel (SDS Max) | Large-scale demolition, heavy concrete | - Connection: SDS Max (8000 N impact resistance▲▲) - Tip: Hardened steel (ASTM A662) | Handles extreme impact loads Optimized for industrial use | Bulky design Requires high-torque tools Higher price point |
Precision Chisel | Detail work, carving, woodwork | - Tip: High-carbon steel (hardness 60 HRC▲) - Edge: Beveled (precision cutting) | Ultra-sharp for fine details Controlled cuts in soft materials | Brittle under heavy force Not for abrasive materials |
Masonry Chisel (Non-Impact) | Light masonry, manual hammering | - Material: High-impact steel (ASTM A108) - Tip: Wedge-shaped (ASTM C136: 150 cycles) | Affordable all-purpose tool Versatile for manual tasks | Limited to light-duty use Wears faster than carbide tips |
