Overview

The Hitachi 751599 Tile Chisel is a dedicated tile removal accessory designed to work with SDS-Plus rotary hammers, making quick work of ceramic, porcelain, and other bonded floor or wall tiles during renovation projects. The defining feature is its curved 30-degree blade angle, which allows the chisel to approach the tile-to-substrate bond at an optimal angle. Rather than driving straight down and shattering tile, the curved profile slides under the tile and leverages the hammer's percussion to break the adhesive bond, lifting tiles away with greater control and less substrate damage.

Measuring 40mm wide and 260mm long, the chisel strikes a balance between coverage and maneuverability. The width is sufficient for standard residential tiles, while the length provides comfortable working distance between the user and the impact point. The SDS-Plus shank is an industry-standard quick-change system that fits rotary hammers from Hitachi (now Metabo HPT), Bosch, Makita, DeWalt, Milwaukee, and other major brands — no adapters needed. For anyone tackling a bathroom remodel, kitchen backsplash removal, or floor tile tear-out, this chisel is a practical single-purpose tool that does one job well.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • The 30-degree curved angle helps the chisel slide under tiles for efficient removal
  • SDS-Plus shank is a universal fit for rotary hammers across all major brands
  • The 260mm length provides good working reach without being unwieldy
  • Designed specifically for tile work, reducing the risk of gouging the substrate underneath

👎 Cons

  • The 40mm blade width is relatively narrow, requiring more passes on large floor areas
  • At 260mm total length, it may not reach tiles in deep or recessed installations
  • Only compatible with SDS-Plus hammers, not the larger SDS-Max tools used on heavy-duty jobs
  • Single-purpose design limits its usefulness compared to a chisel set with multiple profiles
