Description
When you need to shape sheet metal, form channels, or work out dents without cutting through the material, this Mayhew round nose chisel is the tool that gets the job done right. The rounded tip spreads impact force over a wider area compared to sharp chisels, making it perfect for forming smooth curves and gentle bends in metal without the harsh cuts that can weaken your work.
What You’re Getting
- 1/4 inch round nose tip that forms smooth curves without cutting through metal
- 5-3/4 inch overall length gives you good reach and control for detailed work
- Black oxide finish resists rust and corrosion in shop environments
- Forged steel construction handles repeated hammer blows without deforming
Built for Real Shop Work
This chisel really shines when you’re working on equipment repairs where precision metalwork matters. Whether you’re straightening a bent bracket, forming a new piece of sheet metal to replace a damaged panel, or working out dents in exhaust components, the round nose design moves metal gradually without creating stress points that can lead to cracks.
Made to Last
Mayhew has been making quality hand tools for over a century, and this chisel shows why they’ve stuck around. The steel is properly heat-treated to handle shop work, and the black oxide coating keeps it looking professional while protecting against the moisture and dirt that’s part of farm shop life.
Installation Notes
Use light to medium hammer strikes with this chisel – the round nose does the work for you, so there’s no need to beat on it. Keep the tip clean and lightly oiled between uses to prevent rust. If you’re working with thin gauge metal, start with very light taps to avoid stretching the material more than you want.
