Product Description
Milwaukee Scaling Chisel 1-1/2 in. — 3/4 in. Hex Shank
Model Number: 48-62-3020
The Milwaukee 48-62-3020 is a 1-1/2 in. Scaling Chisel with a 3/4 in. hex shank for use with electric chipping hammers, rotary hammers in hammer-only mode, and demolition tools equipped with a 3/4 in. hex tool holder — designed for removing weld spatter from steel structures, mill scale from fabricated steel surfaces, concrete form overflow from concrete joint faces, mortar seepage from masonry joints, and other adhered surface contaminants that require mechanical impact removal rather than grinding or chemical treatment. The scaling chisel profile presents a flat, wide blade at 1-1/2 in. width optimized specifically for scaling work — the blade width covers more surface area per hammer strike than narrow chisels, making scale and spatter removal faster and more efficient on large steel or concrete surfaces that must be cleaned to prepare them for coating, welding, or inspection. Milwaukee drop-forges this chisel from high-grade steel with heat-treated working areas, engineering the material hardness at the blade working surface to maintain the chisel's geometry and cutting effectiveness through the sustained repetitive impact of professional scaling work without premature tip rounding, deformation, or fracture.
The 3/4 in. hex shank is the standard tool shank size for professional electric chipping hammers and the heavy-duty hammer-only mode of large rotary hammers — the hex cross-section provides positive anti-rotation locking in the tool's chuck that prevents the chisel from spinning in the holder under the lateral forces generated during scaling work on inclined and overhead surfaces. Scaling operations require sustained impact application across large surface areas, making chisel durability and heat treatment quality essential performance factors — the heat-treated work area ensures the 1-1/2 in. blade maintains its flat geometry and sharp edges through extended continuous scaling sessions without the progressive deformation that shortens the effective life of standard-quality chisels in heavy production applications. The 1-1/2 in. blade width is the standard scaling chisel specification that balances surface coverage per strike with the impact energy available from professional electric chipping hammers.
Available in a 2 in. width version (48-62-3025) for larger-scale surface cleaning applications where maximum coverage per strike is the priority, and in SDS Max shank versions for use with SDS Max demolition hammers on the heaviest scaling and preparation work.
