Muuraustaltta Makita P-05527

The Makita P-05527 masonry chisel is a hand tool intended for cutting, shaping and removing concrete, brick and other masonry materials. With an overall length of 200 mm and a 40 mm wide cutting edge, the chisel provides a balance between reach and control. The flat tip profile is designed to deliver consistent strikes and effective material removal for tasks such as channeling, joint cleaning and surface leveling.

Advantages

The 200 mm length gives improved access to deeper joints and cavities while maintaining maneuverability. A 40 mm cutting edge delivers a wide working face for faster removal of material compared with narrower tips. The flat chisel geometry ensures uniform force distribution from hammer blows for predictable cutting and reduced risk of chisel tip deflection. Manufactured by Makita, the tool is produced to fit common professional usage patterns and withstand repeated impact.

Suitable for

• Cutting and shaping concrete and mortar
• Removing brick and block material
• Cleaning mortar joints and preparing surfaces
• Channeling and creating recesses in masonry
• General demolition and light chiseling work

Key specifications

• Overall length: 200 mm
• Cutting edge width: 40 mm
• Tip type: flat chisel
• Material: heat-treated steel suited for impact use
• Intended use: masonry and concrete

How to use

Position the flat chisel tip against the work surface at the desired angle and strike the blunt end with a suitable hammer or club hammer. For cutting or chipping, use controlled, repeated blows and advance gradually to avoid overloading the tool. Maintain a stable stance and hold the chisel securely; for narrow joints or deeper work use the full 200 mm length to improve reach. Inspect the chisel tip periodically and dress or re-sharpen if necessary to maintain cutting performance.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, gloves and hearing protection. Match hammer weight to the task—lighter hammers for controlled finishing and heavier hammers for faster material removal. Avoid using a damaged or excessively worn chisel; replace the tool if the tip is cracked or has significant deformation. Store the chisel in a dry location to prevent corrosion and preserve temper.
