Percussive Tools Accessories (Page 4 of 5)

An air hammer, scaler, or rivet hammer is only as good as the steel in its nose. This is the Chicago Pneumatic chisel range — flat and blank chisels, diamond points, cape and edging chisels, pick and bushing chisels, wide and angle scaling chisels, scrapers, asphalt and panel cutters, comb blades and holders, spot weld splitters, tie rods, and rivet sets — plus the retainers that keep them in the tool. Shank is the spine of the whole page: .401 in. round and hex, .498 in. round, 5/8 in. (14.7 mm) hex, 17.3 mm round, 12.5 mm hex, 9.5 mm round and flatnose, and quarter-octagon 1/2 in. wide flange. Fit them to CP percussive tools, hold them with a zip change retainer or a beehive retainer, and see the wider line on the CP accessories and parts page.

Identify the Shank First

Style comes second; the shank decides whether the chisel fits at all. Measure the shank on a chisel already in the hammer, note whether it is round, hex, flatnose, or quarter-octagon, then work down the range.

ChiselShankTypical work
Flat chisel.401 in. hexGeneral cutting
Diamond point.401 in. roundPunching and weld removal
Angle scaling chisel.498 in. roundScale and coatings

Most styles come in more than one shank, so filter by shank first.

Cutters, Comb Blades, and Rivet Sets

Beyond plain chisels the range covers panel work and structural repair: single-blade panel cutters, blade cutters in 12.5 mm hex, five-packs of blades, an asphalt cutter in 5/8 in. hex, comb blades and holder, spot weld splitters, and rivet sets on a .498 in. shank.

Retainers and Springs

A retainer holds the chisel in the nose so it cannot be thrown when the tool cycles off the work. Zip change retainers swap steel without tools, beehive retainers are the classic coil type, and compression springs and adjusting sleeves are listed as replacements. Retainers wear as fast as chisels — see the parts hub.

Common Questions

How do I know which shank my air hammer takes? Pull the chisel you have and measure it: .401 in. and .498 in. round are the two common US air hammer shanks, with .401 in. hex, 12.5 mm hex, and 5/8 in. hex on scaling tools. If in doubt, send us the tool model.

Is this the same as jackhammer steel? No. These are air hammer and scaler chisels, all under 3/4 in. shank. Paving breakers take far heavier 7/8 in. and 1-1/4 in. hex steel — that is tool steel.

Do you carry ATEX-rated chisels? A 5/8 in. hex flat chisel is listed as ATEX for classified areas. In-stock items ordered by 4 PM ET ship the same day; tell us the tool and shank and we will confirm fit.
