Manure fork handle or riek handle ATLAS of ash wood, straight model with a length of 95 cm, equipped with a T-grip. Suitable for forks with forged-on springs. For mounting, two 50 mm rivets are recommended (article number 651620, including mounting advice).

ATLAS fork handles are made from ash rootstocks, which contain the best wood. Ash wood is tough, shock-absorbing and strong. The ash wood undergoes two drying processes: during the first drying process sawn ash planks are air-dried. During the second process the ash wood is re-dried in a climate chamber controlled by computer. By re-drying the handle does not shrink, and tools remain firmly attached to the handle.

Subsequently the ATLAS handle is waxed with plant-based Carnauba. This ensures the wood can breathe, does not absorb water or dirt and retains its beautiful natural colour. Waxing provides a longer lifespan and a comfortable smooth handle, preventing blisters. Moreover, waxing handles with plant-based wax is better for the environment than using varnish or paraffin.

ATLAS manure fork handles are manufactured completely energy-neutral in the Netherlands and are available in various lengths and versions.
