The Spear & Jackson Chisel & Point Pick Head is designed for breaking exceptionally hard surfaces and compacted ground, suitable for heavy-duty excavation and demolition.

What material is the pick head made from?

It is constructed from solid forged carbon steel, with a hardened and tempered finish for durability.

Can this pick head be used for general gardening?

While it can break hard ground, its heavy-duty nature makes it more suitable for construction, landscaping, and groundwork rather than light gardening tasks.

How do I attach the handle to the pick head?

Slide the handle into the eye of the pick head and secure it firmly, typically with a wedge if provided with the handle, to ensure a safe and stable connection.

What is the overall length of the pick head?

Troubleshooting

Pick head feels loose on the handle

Remove the pick head, inspect both the handle and the head's eye for damage. If clear, reinsert the handle firmly and secure it properly. If the handle or eye is damaged, replace the affected part.

Chisel or point edge is dull or chipped

The edges can be sharpened using a metal file or grinder suitable for hardened steel. For significant chips, professional sharpening or replacement might be necessary.

Rust appears on the pick head

Clean the rust using a wire brush and apply a rust inhibitor or a light coat of oil to protect the surface. Ensure the tool is stored in a dry environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up the Spear & Jackson Chisel & Point Pick Head, ensure you have a compatible standard pick handle. Slide the handle firmly into the eye of the pick head. Secure the handle using any provided fixing mechanisms (e.g., a wedge, if applicable to the handle) to ensure a tight and safe fit. Always check that the head is firmly attached before use.

Compatibility: This pick head is designed to be compatible with most standard pick axe handles. Verify the diameter of the handle's eye to ensure a proper fit. It is not compatible with specialized or non-standard handle types.

Care: After each use, clean the pick head of any dirt, mud, or debris. Inspect the head and the point/chisel edges for any signs of damage or excessive wear. Store in a dry place to prevent rust. Periodically check the security of the head on the handle. For long-term storage, a light coating of oil can be applied to the metal surfaces to prevent corrosion.
