TROW & HOLDEN MASONRY SET
CARBIDE MASONRY SET
$219
Generation after generation, masons have worked to bring architectural appeal to structures all over the world.
Our new Carbide Masonry Set includes three of our most versatile stoneworking tools:
* The carbide-tipped Stone Buster, our newest hammer, gives you a splitting tool and a striking hammer in one tool. Comes with a 16" wood handle or substitute a fiberglass handle for an additional $12.
* The 2" carbide-tipped blade Mason's Chipper is perfect for light trimming or squaring stone. The steeply angled blade and beveled carbide tip make it easier to see your work.
* The 1" stock carbide-tipped Hand Point will be the workhorse of your tool set. Use it to rough out and remove high spots, which will help extend the life of your wider-blade carbide tools.

DX 460 Powder-Actuated Tool
THE DX 460 POWDER-ACTUATED TOOL provides consistent fastening quality in a wide range of applications, including anchoring formwork and fastening brick ties. It features a fully automatic piston return system to provide operators a higher fastening rate without needing to manually cycle the tool.
Even in high production use, the DX 460 is proven under jobsite conditions to have a long life expectancy. With a power regulation feature, a variety of Hilti cartridge levels and a wide range of fasteners, the DX 460 is another tool a mason can find to be helpful every day.
SL Forming Nail
THE SL FORMING NAIL is an ideal fastener for temporary jobsite applications such as formwork. The clear merits are quick and accurate driving with a DX powder-actuated tool and quick removal of the nail as well as the forming board, so it can be used again immediately. Drilling, setting an anchor, and then removing it can be eliminated by using a powder-actuated tool.
Generation after generation, masons have worked to bring architectural appeal to structures all over the world. While no tool or fastener can do the work alone, it is good to know there are time-saving tools designed to help today's masonry professionals get the job done faster and safer.
