Single & Triple Piston Scalers

Piston Scalers are used for many different surface preparation projects. They can be used to remove heavy rust, scale, paint or industrail coatings from metal surfaces. They can also be used to rough concrete prior to resurfacing. The pistons used for these applications range from standard steel (TX-00146) to carbide tipped (TX-00150) or solid carbide (TX-00151). However, solid carbide pistons (TX-00151) should not be used on concrete surface preparations. It has been found that silica in concrete causes heat buildup in the solid carbide pistons which in turn causes the pistons to wear more rapidly. Solid carbide pistons should be used on metal surfaces only and primarily for their spark resistance.
