The Simpson SDS-Max Flat Scaler Chisel 3 in. x 12 in. Hardened Steel Demolition Bit is a toughened steel chisel engineered for removing large quantities of material with power and precision. Built from hardened steel and put through a specialized tempering process, this demolition bit develops a wear-resistant surface that holds up through demanding chipping and scaling tasks. The special surface treatment improves performance over the life of the bit and allows the scaler edge to be sharpened whenever necessary, so the tool keeps delivering results rather than heading to the scrap bin ahead of its time.

Key Features

• One-piece design - maximizes energy transfer from the hammer to the working edge, so more of every impact goes into the material rather than being lost through joints or connections
• Specialized tempering process - creates a hardened, wear-resistant surface that stands up to repeated heavy-duty demolition and scaling work without rapid degradation
• Special surface treatment - allows the scaler edge to be resharpened whenever necessary, extending the usable life of the bit and protecting your investment over time
• SDS-max shank - provides a secure, tool-free connection to compatible SDS-max rotary hammers and demolition tools, ensuring a stable and reliable fit during operation
• 3 in. head width - delivers a broad working surface that covers more area per pass, making it well-suited for efficiently removing large quantities of material such as tile, mortar, rust, and scale
• 12 in. overall length - gives the operator useful reach and clearance when working in recessed areas or on surfaces where extra bit length improves access and control

Why This Product

• Built to last through repeated resharpening - the special surface treatment applied to this chisel means the edge can be sharpened whenever necessary, making it a long-term tool rather than a single-season consumable
• Designed specifically for high-volume material removal - the wide 3 in. scaling head paired with a one-piece, energy-efficient body means fewer passes and less effort when stripping tile, concrete scale, or similar materials
• Hardened steel construction backed by a tempering process - the wear-resistant surface holds up under the sustained impact loads that flatten ordinary bits prematurely, keeping the chisel in working condition longer
• Reliable SDS-max compatibility - the SDS-max shank connects securely to a wide range of professional-grade rotary hammers and demolition tools, making this scaler a straightforward addition to an existing SDS-max setup
