Manure fork handle or pitchfork handle ATLAS made of ash wood, rectangular model with a length of 95 cm, equipped with a strong through-mount T-grip. Suitable for forks with forged-on tines. For assembly, two 50 mm rivets are recommended (article number 651620, including assembly 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 wood planks are air-dried. During the second process, the ash wood is redried in a climate-controlled chamber using computer control. Because of this redrying, the handle does not shrink, the tool remains firmly attached 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 allows the wood to breathe, prevents it from absorbing water or dirt, and preserves its beautiful light color. The waxing provides a longer service life and a pleasant smooth handle, helping prevent blisters. In addition, plant-based waxing of handles is better for the environment than using varnish or paraffin.
ATLAS manure fork handles are manufactured entirely energy-neutrally in the Netherlands and are available in various lengths and versions.
