It performed great for knocking the scale off some angle iron i needed to get clean. The only downside is the tool is loud, it is kinda like a mini jack-hammer in your hand afterall. It also eats a fair amount of air so make sure you have a large compressor to keep up with it. The other downside is the tool gets pretty cold after using it due to the amount of air being consumed so you may want to wear gloves while using it.

Bought this to clean up the frame before wire wheeling and painting. It did a very well job holds up just fine and has plenty of power, takes the scale right off and finds all the soft spots in the metal

Honestly I have never written a review until now. I am restoring my 2000 super duty, and I live in Pennsylvania. Rust everywhere! Used this tool on my whole frame, and entire flatbed. It worked flawlessly. the hammer hits very hard. I run about 110-130psi. Tool has a dial for air adjustment, it is verry nice for lighter medal, and better control in little aeras. I used this tool for hours upon hours and the tool works perfect in my opinion for the money! It works so well I am going to get air hammer attachments for it. If you're looking through all the different scalers and you can't decide what one to buy like me..... this tool will impress you for the money.

I waited to write a review on this Air Needle Scaler because I wanted to use it and use it to make sure when I gave my review it would be based on true facts!This thing works great! I've used it for hours and hours removing rust (very thick rust) on the bottom of my Jeep.I used it on the front suspension and framework.It takes off the hard thick caked up rust right down to the base metal!I have absolutely no complains on how good this works, totally happy with it.The only thing I wish was different is the thickness of the handle, it's kind of narrow (thin) so it does stress out my hand pretty quickly. I am going to figure out some way of making it thicker and then it will be the bees knees!

Working in the rust belt this is a must have. Makes rust scale fall right off. Air hammer is cheap, but who cares, great price and functions very well

I use this tool mostly for quick preparation of steel wheels before getting them ready for paint job. It removes in no time all that rust and dirt in the wheels folds and crevices. I found that it works better and faster then regular roloc discs mounted on air grinders. I only need to use a sandpaper to finish and smooth out the surface before the first paint coating. This tool is a pleasure to use and is efficient for what it does. I use it with a 60 gallons air compressor. I don’t think that any air compressor smaller then 15 gallons could provide enough compressed air to power it. Figure approx. 7CFM at 90psi. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy it again if ever needed.

After a maximum of one hour of use, the device has been down since yesterday. Despite careful oil supply, the vibration mechanism has stopped working, nothing more. Exceeds my worst concerns about poor quality. I'm excited...Better stay away from such goods!

Not exactly sure if I received a new one, it was packed like it was, but it had some scratches on the side and when I oiled it, some excess oil came out in a somewhat rusty color. It actually works excellent but it was either used or not made with much care. I still think its a decent value for the money. It did a nice job getting rust scale off a truck frame.

Bought this to assist in refinishing a 16' flat deck trailer I bought. The original finish was flaking off and it was covered in areas of flaking rust. I was skeptical on this for the price but definitely exceeded my expectations.I have about 4 to 5 hours of use, at 160 psi of shop air pressure, and oiled it once an hour. Worked flawlessly. Definitely worth the money.One of those tools I wouldn't expect to last if i used to all day everyday (although it doesnt feel "cheap") but one i would want around for the odd project here and there.

This gun is getting heavy use by me. Oil daily means to oil it for every hour of use. If it starts getting sluggish; oil it again. I have been using it on thick rust scale and way over design pressure and havent killed it yet. Good tool.
