Footprint Tools 1861 Guarded Grooved Plugging Chisel

The 1861 Grooved Plugging Chisel is a heavy-duty tool designed to remove mortar and cement from between bricks and blocks. Made in Britain, it features a single piece of carbon steel that is hardened and tempered for strength and durability. The blade width is 16 mm (5/8 inch) and the chisel length is 265 mm (10.3/8 inches). A domed head helps prevent splintering during repeated hammer strikes, while a center groove facilitates rapid debris removal. The blade is drop-forged from head to blade for superior strength, and the edge may be fluted to aid in extracting mortar away from the joint. The chisel is supplied with a high-visibility, protective plastic grip for comfortable handling. Compatibility includes standard hammer drills and chisels, making it suitable for masonry and brickwork removal tasks.
