Dasco Pro10 Inch Plugging Chisel, Made In The USA, Clean Mortar Without Binding, VN74761

Used to pick out 4 day old mortar, worked exactly as I had imagined. Sturdy with the perfect angle, nice sharp edges that are useful for scraping mortar missed when chiseling. Unfortunately had to use this a lot😂 however would recommend to anybody who is hard on tools and expects the best.

Bought this last summer in anticipation of repointing my old brick foundation. Worth its weight in gold. Held up to the entire job of removing a foundation's worth of old mortar (except the spot I needed the jack hammer!). No complaints. Now on to repointing the chimney. Plan on using it there, too. Heavy duty chisel that works great for its intended use.

Tough little chisel. Not quite the size that I'm used to but I lost that one ages ago. I would have preferred one that was 1/4" thick which is closer to what the mortar joints were that I've run into. Only tip I can give is to remember that your hammer drill is your friend. Far easier to clean out a mortar joint that has been largely drilled out with close spaced holes. Then you can simply drive it in hole by hole. But it also depends on why your removing the mortar. I've usually had to do it in order to create a hole in wall but keep the brick for reuse as when I've created openings for new doors or windows, or my latest project, a doggy door through a brick wall for my daughters new pet.

Very robust tool. Should last a lifetime.

I purchased this plugging chisel to clean out deteriorated mortar joints prior to tuckpointing. The design of the chisel tip allows for precise mortar removal and reduces the chance of binding which can cause bricks to be unintentionally dislodged. It made quick work of it and when combined with use of a cold chisel, produced excellent results. As an added bonus, this chisel is MADE IN THE USA and the quality shows.Good example of where using the right tool for the job makes a difference.

I used this chisel to remove mortar joints between flagstone walkway. It worked very well without damaging any flagstone. The chisel not only broke the mortar into small pieces, but you could also use it to pry the pieces out of the joints.

The Dasco Pro 476 plugging chisel works well to remove mortar between cement blocks without damaging the block. I found the 3/16-inch thickness works well and it is long enough to easily go 1 1/2-inches deep if needed.

Very goo
