At the present time on the market you can see a variety of professional and domestic models of metalworking tools.

Among them is a chisel, which is used for processing different surfaces and workpieces, gouging holes, preparing grooves and for other work.

The chisel consists of a sharpened working part and a backplate, which is used for attacking the tool. By its appearance, the chisel resembles the shape of a rod, its cross section is rectangular and oval. The main material used during the production of this tool is structural or carbon steel. Sometimes zinc or chrome is also applied to the chisel work surface. Based on existing models of chisels, they can be divided into several main types:

- khrejtsmeseli;
- grooves;
- peaks.

The feature of the kreizmessel is that they have a narrowed cutting edge. They are mainly used for cutting grooves of different sizes. Creutzmessel can also cut grooves.

The grooves are a type of crosshead. They differ from other types of chisels in that they have a figured cutting edge.

Peaks are chisels that are used to supply pneumatic breakers. Also, peaks are used in chipping and jackhammers, as this chisel has a sufficiently high strength.

To choose the right chisel, you need to know what work with it will be performed. Modern chisels differ in size and angle of taper of the working part. Also, when choosing a chisel, you should consider the processing of which material will be used this tool. For example, if you plan to process products made from soft alloys, it is better to choose a chisel with a small sharpening angle. If you process surfaces from hard alloys, you will need a tool with an acute angle of the cutting part.

There are also chisels with rubberized working part. Thanks to this, it is safe and comfortable to operate this tool.
