3/16" Steel Swept Cape Chisel – Offset Masonry Joint Cleaning Chisel
The 3/16" Steel Swept Cape Chisel is a professional masonry and restoration tool designed for clearing old, soft, lime-based mortar from narrow joints and hard-to-reach areas. Its narrow blade profile is ideal for working in tight masonry joints, while the offset, fully hardened steel blade provides an improved approach angle for efficient mortar removal.
Designed for precision joint cleaning and restoration work, the swept offset profile allows the user to access recessed joints more effectively while helping maintain control during chiselling applications.

Designed for Tight Masonry Joints
The narrow profile of the Steel Swept Cape Chisel makes it particularly useful when working in confined masonry joints where a wider chisel cannot easily reach.
The offset blade is designed to maximise the approach angle, helping users access old mortar more effectively during restoration and repointing preparation.
Hardened Steel Construction
The fully hardened steel blade provides durability for repeated masonry applications. The offset design combines strength with improved access, making the chisel a useful tool for removing old, soft mortar from joints.
