Air Powered Needle Scalers

coppergrease · Jun 18, 2007

Hi All,

Anyone know if these are any good? I was shown on the other day and it made short work of a pretty crappy wheel, but I just looked at the price and wondered just how useful they are in the bigger scheme of things. They are about 60 quid.

There ok for rough cleaning of welds and if you paid 60 quid you've been had

We use em sometimes at work, good little tools, though we use em for chipping old concrete from the trucks, rather than metal cleaning....Bought em from Clarkes, had em 2 years now, never been any probs with them..

I used 1 to clean off stone work on an old stone cottage, worked great, saw another guy use on an odd bits a steel, think they worth it bot 60 quid sounds high. they do use a lot a air so u need a decent compressor

That clarke needle gun looks the same as mine, air chisel with attachment already fitted, the attachment is bout 14 quid...if you already have the air chisel.

Got the air chisel in Aldi last month for 7 quid!!!
