Roughneck Sharp Edge Round Shovel 68-046 - The Ultimate Digging Tool for Tough Jobs
The Roughneck Sharp Edge Round Shovel 68-046 is a heavy-duty, robust shovel designed for tackling the most challenging digging tasks. Whether you're a professional landscaper, builder, or avid gardener in Bridgwater, Somerset, this shovel is an indispensable tool for breaking through tough ground, slicing roots, and even opening bulk bags. Available at Electro South West Ltd (www.electrosw.co.uk), this shovel combines strength, durability, and user comfort to make demanding jobs easier.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Sharp Serrated Edge: The blade features a sharp, serrated edge, making it exceptionally effective at cutting through compacted soil, stubborn roots, and even opening tough bags of materials like cement or aggregates. This saves you time and effort on tasks that would be difficult with a standard shovel.
- Heavy-Duty Carbon Steel Blade: Constructed from high-quality carbon steel, the blade is built for strength and longevity. It can withstand significant force and resist bending or breaking, ensuring reliable performance for years to come.
- Corrosion-Resistant Finish: The blade is finished with a tumble lacquered coating, providing excellent resistance to rust and corrosion. This is particularly important in the often damp conditions of the UK, ensuring the shovel remains in top condition.
- Lightweight Fibreglass Shaft: The shovel features a tubular fibreglass shaft, which offers a significant weight reduction compared to traditional steel shafts. This reduces user fatigue, allowing you to work for longer periods with greater comfort. Fibreglass is also resistant to rot and weathering, adding to the tool's durability.
- Soft Grip D-Shaped Handle: The ergonomically designed D-shaped handle is fitted with a soft grip, providing a comfortable and secure hold. This design allows for excellent control and leverage, reducing strain on your hands and wrists. The D-shape also accommodates gloved hands easily.
- Foot Treads for Increased Pressure: The blade incorporates integrated foot treads on the top edge. These allow you to apply extra downward pressure with your foot, making it easier to penetrate hard or compacted ground with reduced risk of slippage.
- Power Ring Socket with Steel-Reinforced Plug: The connection between the blade and the shaft is crucial for the shovel's strength. The Power Ring socket features a steel-reinforced plug, providing a robust and secure connection that minimizes the risk of the blade detaching during heavy use.
