An air chisel hammer is used for working on a car body, including for cleaning welds. Besides, it is used to remove corroded fasteners. The tool is supplied together with replacement chisels to accomplish various tasks. For example, a set can include narrow and wide chisels and a tapered punch.

Types of air chisel hammers
