Before starting chasing in brick walls
Chasing brick walls is a technique that requires precision, expertise and the right tools. Our first recommendation, before starting, is to have a good wall chaser and good safety equipment.
As for the WALL CHASERS, our brand, MACROZA, distributes since 1956 different custom-made models with which you will gain in safety, precision, cleanliness and, above all, time, since they will allow you to make more meters in the same period than with other Wall Chasers.
Most common brick wall types for chases
Having said that, it is essential to understand the materials we work with. Although there are more, the most common brick walls are:
Solid Perforated Brick
Although lighter in weight than traditional solid wood, their drilling requires meticulous attention when chasing so as not to compromise their structure.
Hollow Brick
Mainly easy to find in single or double versions, these bricks feature cavities that make them less dense, requiring a careful and controlled approach when chasing.
Depending on the material you are working on, you will need one wall chaser or another.
Select your chasing tools well
Select well the technology you are going to use as it is key to achieve good results. If you have any doubts, we can help you. We have more than 3 models and different milling cutters for each job. In general, these are the recommendations we give you. Choose:
