Marples MS500 Chisel 1/4 Inch

IRWIN Marples MS500 All‑Purpose Chisel ½″ (10501702)

The IRWIN Marples MS500 All‑Purpose Chisel combines professional‑grade craftsmanship with user‑friendly ergonomics, designed for tradespeople and serious DIYers. The ½‑inch (13 mm) wide blade is produced from specially treated tool steel, forged in one piece for maximum strength and integrity. A heavy‑duty metal striking cap protects the handle from hammer abuse and prevents mushrooming.

The ProTouch™ handle offers enhanced comfort and vibration reduction, allowing for extended use with less fatigue. The blade is hardened and tempered up to the last inch, giving a long edge life and less re‑sharpening downtime. Supplied honed and sharpened from the manufacturer, this chisel is ready to go straight out of the pack, making it a convenient choice for workshops, site use and precision joinery applications.
