1400W Electric Demolition Jack Hammer + 2 Chisels Guide
1400W Heavy-Duty Electric Demolition Jack Hammer with 2 Chisels
A compact electric demolition hammer can speed up concrete and masonry work where a full-size air hammer setup isn’t practical. This 1400W heavy-duty demolition jack hammer includes two chisels for breaking, chipping, and removing material on common home and jobsite tasks such as small slab removal, tile teardown, and masonry channeling. With plug-in power and a portable form factor, it’s a solid option for remodelers and maintenance crews who want demolition capability without hauling a compressor.
What the Tool Is Designed For
This type of electric demolition jack hammer is built for impact-driven material removal on smaller-to-medium tasks where control and portability matter.
- Breaking and chipping concrete, mortar, brick, and stone on smaller-to-medium demolition tasks
- Removing tile and thinset, lifting stubborn flooring material, and scraping when paired with the right chisel profile
- Opening channels in masonry for basic repairs (not a substitute for specialized cutting tools when precise edges are required)
- General-purpose demolition where portability and plug-in power are preferred over compressors
If you’re shopping for a plug-in breaker for around-the-house projects, the 1400W Heavy-Duty Electric Demolition Jack Hammer with 2 Chisels is an in-stock option designed for those practical, messy tasks that would otherwise take hours with a hand chisel.
What’s Included
- 1400W electric demolition jack hammer
- Two chisels for common demolition and chipping work (use a pointed chisel for breaking and a flat chisel for chipping/surface removal)
- Verify accessory fit and shank style before adding aftermarket chisels to ensure proper retention and safe operation
Two chisels cover a lot of real-world jobs: the pointed bit helps you “start” a break in dense material, while the flat bit is the go-to for peeling layers and clearing surfaces.
Power and Use Feel
- 1400W motor output supports sustained breaking and chipping on masonry surfaces
- Best results come from letting the tool do the work: apply steady pressure rather than forcing the bit
- For hard concrete, start with a pointed chisel to fracture the surface, then switch to a flat chisel to peel and clear material
- Work in short passes to manage heat and vibration and to keep debris from binding the chisel
A helpful rhythm for many DIY demos is “break, clear, check, repeat.” Break material for a short interval, stop to move rubble out of the way, then reposition for the next pass. This keeps the chisel from getting pinched and reduces wasted impact energy.
Chisel Selection and Common Jobs
The fastest way to improve results is choosing the right chisel profile for the stage of work.
- Pointed chisel: initiating cracks, breaking corners, starting holes, and tackling dense spots
- Flat chisel: removing tile/thinset, chipping edges, smoothing high spots, and lifting material layers
- For tile removal, angle the flat chisel shallow and work from an exposed edge to reduce gouging into the substrate
- For slab breakup, score or weaken the area first (where applicable) and break from edges inward to control fracture lines
Quick job guide
| Job | Start With | Then Switch To | Technique Tip |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tile and thinset removal | Flat chisel | Flat chisel (same) | Keep a shallow angle and work from a loose edge to avoid digging into the subfloor. |
| Small concrete patch demo | Pointed chisel | Flat chisel | Create fractures first, then “peel” material up and out with the flat bit. |
| Brick/mortar chipping | Pointed chisel | Flat chisel | Use light, controlled pressure to avoid collateral cracking where you want to keep edges intact. |
Setup and Operation Basics
- Confirm the power source matches tool requirements and use a properly rated extension cord if needed (short and heavy-gauge to reduce voltage drop)
- Inspect the chisel and retaining mechanism before each use; never operate with a damaged bit or loose retention
- Start on a stable stance with two-hand control; keep the power cord routed behind and away from the chipping path
- Pause periodically to clear rubble and check the working edge of the chisel for mushrooming or excessive wear
For cleaner progress, keep the work area “open.” If you’re breaking a patch, chip a small trench to create room for fragments to escape, then expand outward. When debris has nowhere to go, bits tend to bind and the tool feels like it’s fighting you.

FAQ
What are the two chisels used for?
The pointed chisel is typically used to initiate cracks, break corners, and fracture dense concrete or masonry. The flat chisel is better for chipping, lifting layers, and surface removal tasks like tile and thinset.
Can it break concrete and remove tile?
Yes—this style of demolition hammer is suited for chipping and breaking concrete and for removing tile with a flat chisel. Results vary with slab thickness, reinforcement, and how well tile is bonded to the substrate, so technique and patience matter.
What safety gear is recommended for demolition hammer work?
Use eye/face protection, hearing protection, gloves, sturdy footwear, and respiratory protection with dust control for concrete and masonry debris. Also check for hidden utilities before breaking into walls or slabs.
