Aluminium ballast shovel with thick blade and long ash wood ATLAS handle
Ballast shovel PROFI aluminium no. 9 with wear strip, German model with blade size 38 x 38 cm, complete with ash wood ATLAS shovel handle, 140 cm long.
The strong aluminium blade has a thickness of approx. 2.5 mm. The steel wear strip at the front protects the edge of the blade from damage. Thanks to the high upturned edge at the back of the blade, large volumes can be scooped.
ATLAS shovel handles are made from ash rootstock, which contains the best wood. Ash wood is tough, shock-absorbing, and strong. The ash wood undergoes two drying processes. Through the re-drying the handle does not shrink and the tool and the grip remain firmly attached to the handle.
Finally, 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 light color.
