What are builder’s and cold chisels used for?

Shop for Chisels

A cold chisel, which can be used to cut any metal which is softer than itself, can be used for jobs including:

• Cutting through sheets of metal which are too thick for tin snips.

• Removing old bolts and nuts which may have corroded/rusted and become stuck, or removing rivet heads which are not needed anymore.

• Cutting bricks (where half-bricks may be needed for bricklaying).

• Removing waste from within concrete cracks before filling them.
