The Novatek Steel Long Reach Needle Scaler puts a needle head on the end of a 2' or 5' steel body, so rust, mill scale and old coatings on floors, decks and tanks come off while the operator stands upright. A bundle of twenty-eight 3mm chisel tip needles strikes at 2200 blows per minute, and the front tube slides forward as the needles shorten.
The 2' model (30" overall, 14 lbs) suits close work, while the 5' model (65" overall, 17 lbs) lets you cover a floor or deck without bending. Either one draws only 5 CFM from a portable compressor. When a job needs chisels or scraper heads, the needle attachment comes off and the 5/8" hex chisel holder, sold separately, threads on in its place.
Features
Scale Standing Up
The 2' and 5' steel bodies keep the needles on the work while you stand, sparing knees and back.
28 x 3mm Chisel Tip Needles
A full bundle of chisel tip needles fractures rust, scale and failing paint over a wide path.
2200 bpm on 5 CFM
Hard hitting yet light on air, so a small portable compressor keeps it running.
Adjustable Front Tube
Slide the front tube along the intermediate tube to keep 1" of needle showing as the tips wear.
Steel Construction
Steel body, cylinder and needle tubes stand up to deck, tank and floor work.
Padded Handle Grip
A padded comfort grip at the top of the body, with the throttle lever under your hand.
Converts to Chisel Work
Fit the 5/8" hex chisel holder, sold separately, to run hex chisels and Long Reach Scraper Complete heads.

About Novatek
Novatek Corporation, based in Pennsylvania, designs and builds industrial surface preparation and air filtration equipment for contractors, shipyards, plants and abatement crews. Its range runs from pneumatic needle scalers, scaling hammers and long-reach scrapers to vacuum-shrouded tools, HEPA vacuums, contained blast systems, Novastrip infrared tile strippers and the Novair line of portable air scrubbers.
The steel long reach brings Novatek's needle scaling to floors and decks at standing height; for hand-held work at arm's length, the 19PG, 28PG and 35 pistol grip needle scalers cover the same jobs. To convert it for tile and adhesive, the 5/8" hex chisel holder, the Long Reach Scraper Complete heads and their replacement blade packs are sold here.
