Explanation of socket angle
The socket angle indicates the angle relative to the blade. The higher the socket angle, the more slanted the socket is. This determines whether a shovel or digging shovel is designed for digging or scooping. The socket angle is measured from the ground to the socket when the blade is flat on the ground.
Straight: the handle is nearly straight on the blade
1/4: the socket is bent up 35 mm, for example for digging shovels
1/2: the socket is bent up 55 mm, for example for scoop shovels and concrete shovels
3/4: the socket is bent up 70 mm, for example for scoop shovels and cable shovels
