Track Chisel – Square Cutter – Safety Grip Handle

The Track-Chisel – Square Cutter is nearly identical to the Round Cutter version in overall dimensions 5-1/2 lb. weight, 1-3/8 cutting blade, 10-1/2 overall bit length. The primary difference is simply that the cutting blade is straight with squared corners.

Also referred to as a Nut Cutter in AREMA Plan #35, this chisel was traditionally used for just that cutting seized nuts while maintaining or repairing railroad track in the field. It can be swung or positioned and then struck on its striking face with a sledge.

The Track Chisel – Square Cutter is drop-forged from Grade B alloy steel per AREMA specifications and available with a 24 hickory handle, 36 hickory handle with safety grip or as a tool only. Warwood is proud to manufacture our tools in the U.S. from only premium U.S.-sourced steel and hickory.
