    The included adapter lets you use chisels in these scalers. The small needles gently tap surfaces to remove unwanted rust, scale, paint, and weld spatter. They generate little dust and are excellent for use on irregular-shaped areas and in tight spots.
    Piston Stroke—Piston stroke determines the force of a scaler. The longer the stroke, the greater the force.
