great for the price
nice pistol grip,great for the price..nice short needle scales...does vibrate @ high air...and the set screws want to vibrate out & end up on shop floor!!!use locktite on set screws to prevent this & you'll have no problem...I have 2 & one does vibrate on the adjustable air dial...but no big deal..works well on rust/old painted wheels,etc..

failure
Hello
The tool worked great for 15 min . After that, no hammer action. Was very careful about oiling it. Removed the needle head and tried to use it in another air hammer, but it would not fit. All in all a very frustrating experience.

in less than 1 min it quit working,the plastic trigger is a VERY POOR DESIGN!!!!!

Great for brittle paint
Scaler was bought to see if it would remove thick, brittle, peeling paint from an old house. It worked very well for ~3 hours then spit out one needle. Soon afterward it jammed and slowly moved all needles about 1/2 inch instead of normal ~ 1/16". BUT, it had worked much faster and easier for this application than hi-speed sander, heat, chemicals, or scrapeing. I lubed it manually about hourly, ran it on low presssure much of the time, but may have over-boosted it in ~110 psi bursts to start new areas. It dented some soft clapboards at full speed, but was easy to regulate to avoid this. On taking mine apart I found overly loose clearances and imprecise machining of the "needle fixer." I think the spring end jammed into the clearance of fixer to body. I expect to try another, but will set supply lower than 90 psi. Move it at very light force to be most effective, and use thick gloves to protect hands from vibes.

Needle scaler
I have a 66 Mustang that I am restoring. It had quite a bit of Rusty Jones undercoating in the fenderwells that I used the scaler to remove. Worked absolutely perfect!!

Works Great!
I used this to clean off a older plow frame and blade. Took the scale and old paint off fast.

Tool allows intricate detailed cleaning of corroded irregular shaped surfaces with very little stress on your wrist. exerting too much pressure on the tool can break the needles though.
