Beta’s chisels and hammers family is designed to meet any
application, from chiselling to demolition.
Hammers and soft-faced hammers
The range includes several steel
heads, from the conventional German and French head to the heads for specific
professional use. The striking surfaces are submitted to a localised hardening
treatment and tempering to reduce hardness to 52-54 HRC for two main reasons:
● to avoid chipping;
● to ensure a hardness
factor sufficient to ensure a long life without denting.
Accurate machining, not usual in
this kind of product, and excellent finish make Beta’s hammers very reliable
for professional use.
The range also offers varied
soft-faced hammer models with striking surfaces made of plastics or full rubber
coated with dead-blow characteristics.
The quality of the soft-faced
hammers is ensured by a perfect grip of the heads and the excellent
physical and chemical properties of the plastics material being used.
Shafts
The hammers can have wooden
shaft, hickory shafts or fibre shafts coated with plastic material (safety
characteristics).
Drift punches, pin
punches, centre punches, chisels and cape chisels
These tools are made from special
steel heat treated to an average hardness of 58 HRC for high resistance to
shocks and wear.
Extra tempering of the striking
surface allows its progressive deformation under the striking action
eliminating the danger of chipping and splitting. Tips and cutting edges are
ground and rust-protected after the chrome plating process.
Chisels with hand guards
guarantee a comfortable use and protection against accidental bumps.
Proper tool use
according to UNI specification
● Strike tools in direct
line to avoid slipping;
● use striking tools
with a wider surface than the punch or chisel;
● wear eye safety
protection;
● avoid misuse;
● do not use damaged or
excessively worn tools;
● replace the tool when
there is an excessive striking deformation.
