3-in Wide Machine Sharpened Tile & THINSET REMOVAL BIT, 0.401 in shank!!! (3" X 7.5")

Saved the day for tile removal demolition Diy. Worked awesome. Worked as described. Saved me so much time. Worth every cent paid.

Works well for thinset removal. I attempted to remove some stubborn 13x13" tiles which I could not get to come up with a smaller bit and I ended removing most of the tiles before breaking the thinset removal tool. Because it worked so well on thinset I bought another one. I knew I shouldn't have tried it on tile but I figured it wouldn't hurt. Just a bit of advice for anyone getting in a hurry... this will only hold up to extreme pressure such as removing tile for a short period of time before it breaks. On thinset this tool works great, on other things maybe not so much.

When I started removing the tile from my living room/kitchen area, I was chipping away at it with a chisel and hammer. Aside from being very time consuming, It was fairly effective to pop the tile up. However, the mortar under neath wasn't coming up with it and there was no way I was going to chip away at it with the method I was currently using. I tried a metal floor scraper thing that looked like a miniature snow shovel that I found at Home Depot, but it was useless and the sound of thin metal scraping on cement was horrible. I then went to Harbor Freight and found a scraper that hooks to an air compressor but it didn't even function - can't say I was surprised by this, really. I then resorted to buying an air-hammer and found this 3" chisel bit here on Amazon. I noticed there weren't a lot of options on Amazon for this type of bit - basically it was either this or a 4 inch one but I'm cheap so I didn't spend the extra $10 for the 4 inch. And, well, it did exactly what I needed it to - It chipped off the thinset/mortar and didn't damage the cement floor underneath.Don't get me wrong, it was still time consuming and incredibly dusty, but it was like going "ludicrous speed" compared to what it would have been had I chipped it off with the ol' hammer and chisel method.Once the thinset was removed, I started on the remaining tiles in the dining area. It was SO much easier using this bit than how I had done the majority of the floor already. And I know it's obvious, but heed the directions and warnings by wearing eye protection. I was constantly getting pelted in the face by chunks of debris while using this thing. I'd even suggest using the shop-teacher style goggles as opposed to cheap safety glasses - I was wearing the cheap ones and was still getting chunks of stuff flipping up under my glasses as I went.Also,I made the mistake of not hanging plastic up to keep the dust confined to where I was working - everything was covered! And then after wiping everything down, it was re-covered the next day as all the crap in the air finally settled. So if you are using this to deal with tile, hang some plastic "drop cloth" up.My final word on this, is that it's a great tool. After all the thinset I obliterated, it still had a decent edge. It had dulled some, which is to be expected, but there weren't any big chips or gouges in the metal. This thing will last indefinitely if taken care of.

I've not bought 3 of these, the first one broke after about 2 h of solid use, you could tell where the metal was forged incompletely, it happens. Overall, this chisel is the perfect size for a pneumatic hammer to remove thinset, it works so well my 13 yr old could operate it with ease! I just can't imagine a better tool for removing thinset in a reasonably small area, I used mine to remove it from some front entry steps. I also purchase a 42" long-handle air chisel to remove tile and thinset, the 3" air hammer worked much better, took less energy, and left a cleaner surface. Highly recommend! Took one star for chisel breaking after short-bit of usage, buy 2 or 3.

This made the job so much easier. I was using a small 3/4 in. bit before and was removing tile from a cement floor. I bought this and got a 6 ft x 15 ft area cleared of tile in about 3 hours. I was running 3 air compressors too. The bit held up just fine, no nicks or dings in the bit. It's pricey but worth it with how quickly the job goes. One thing I recommend on the job is to spray the tile and grout down with water as you move through it. Less dust to worry about. I learned that a bit too late.

I'm using this to remove ancient adhesive used to hold up drop ceiling panels, why the didn't just paint the nice quality ply underneath is beyond me. Using this tool in my air hammer, a heat gun and following up with a random orbital makes short work of an otherwise dreadful task.I would not want to use this for any big tile removal job. Save your back and buy or borrow a pneumatic floor scraper.I have both. this in a air chisel is great where you dont want to heft the 50lb scraper, but this is not the tool to remove a whole kitchens worth of flooring.

I pulled tiles up from 2 places in my house, both about 6' x 6'. Being my first time, I did not realize how difficult it would be to remove the thin set from the concrete slab. After 20 minutes with a hammer and chisel, I had almost removed 1 square foot. Off to spending some time at YouTube university, I found a great video of a guy using an air hammer and a make shift chisel attachment... I went to Amazon and found this. SO GLAD I DID. Both sections were done in 30 minutes, chisel held up fine. If you own a compressor (at least a 4-5 gallon tank) you can pick up an air hammer for cheap and make your thin set removal life a whole lot better

Works great. I did break this bit, but I assume I got a defective one. The seller immediately replaced it and shipped it overnight. No complaints. I would do business with this seller again, and I would buy this bit again! I removed at least 500 sq ft of tile/thinset + plus some kiind of tough leveling compound.
