Straight Shovel Handle of Ash Wood suitable for a Drent model shovel
ATLAS shovel handle made of ash wood, straight T-handle with a length of 110 cm, with a strong through-mount T-grip. A straight shovel handle is often used together with a digging shovel or Drent model shovel.
ATLAS shovel handles are made from ash wood trunk bases, 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 wood boards are air-dried. During the second process, the ash wood is computer-controlled redried in a climate chamber. Because of the redrying, the handle does not shrink, tools remain firmly fixed to the handle, and the through-mount T-grip can be pressed onto the handle without glue or a staple.
Next, the ATLAS handle is waxed with plant-based Carnauba. This ensures that the wood can breathe, does not absorb water or dirt, and retains its beautiful light color. Waxing provides a longer service life and a pleasantly smooth handle, helping to prevent blisters. In addition, plant-based waxing of handles is better for the environment than using varnish or paraffin.
ATLAS shovel handles are manufactured entirely in the Netherlands with energy neutrality and are available in various lengths and versions.
