565-1/2 plumb hatchet w/gauge

The 565 ½ Plumb Hatchet is a dual-purpose roofing tool designed for shingle installation and removal. With an adjustable gauge that accommodates both metric and standard shingle dimensions, this hatchet eliminates the need to carry multiple measurement tools. The 2-1/8-inch cutting edge and integrated draw knife provide versatile cutting options.

Specifications

The Plumb Hatchet features hardened and tempered forged steel construction with a hickory handle:

• Permabond chemical welding: Prevents head separation during heavy use
• Checkered face: Grips nail heads securely for accurate driving and reduced slippage
• Draw knife inner blade: Provides a second cutting edge for trimming without changing tools
• Rust-retardant black head finish: Extends tool lifespan in wet conditions and reduces maintenance
• Hickory handle with leather strip: Reduces hand fatigue and provides a secure grip in varied weather
• 2-1/8-inch cutting edge: Handles clean cuts through asphalt shingles and underlayment in a single pass
• Adjustable gauge for various dimensions: Works with multiple shingle sizes without switching tools or manual measurements

The forged steel head is hardened and tempered for edge retention.

Sharp Cuts With No Fuss

The adjustable gauge lets you set consistent shingle exposure across different products without stopping to measure each course. The checkered face improves nail-driving accuracy, reducing bent nails and material waste. Permabond chemical welding keeps the head secure through thousands of strikes, eliminating downtime from loose tool heads.
