A rivet buster blank tool is a specialized attachment used with a pneumatic rivet buster hammer. Unlike chisels or cutting tools, a blank tool has a flat, solid end without a sharp edge, designed for general impact applications such as pushing, forming, driving, or breaking materials. It is a versatile tool commonly used in metalwork, construction, and demolition tasks where direct force application is required.
- Design: A rivet buster 11X blank is a versatile, unshaped tool bit designed for use with pneumatic rivet buster hammers. Unlike chisels or punches, the blank does not have a predefined cutting or striking shape, allowing for custom machining or modification based on specific job requirements. The 11X shank ensures compatibility with standard rivet busters, making it a fundamental tool for custom fabrication, demolition, and specialized industrial applications.
- Applications:
- Custom Tool Fabrication: Can be machined or shaped into a chisel, punch, or moil point for specific tasks; used by machinists and tool specialists for specialized demolition or metalwork.
- General Demolition & Breaking: Used as a blunt impact tool for breaking concrete, masonry, and metal structures; can be left unshaped for general impact applications.
- Rivet & Pin Removal (When Modified into a Punch): Can be ground into a precision punch for removing rivets and pins in heavy-duty applications; ideal for railroad, shipbuilding, and structural steel dismantling.
- Metal Cutting & Chipping (When Modified into a Chisel): Can be shaped into a narrow or wide chisel for cutting and chipping steel, iron, or concrete; common in construction, demolition, and industrial fabrication.
- Railroad & Track Maintenance: Used in rail maintenance and refurbishment when customized for track fastener and spike removal; essential for bridge repair and infrastructure projects.
- Material: Made from high-quality, heat-treated steel for enhanced hardness, impact strength, and long-term durability.
- Configurations: Length 12″
