Digging shovel ATLAS DIAMANT, Drenthe model made of stainless steel or INOX with socket position 1/4 bent and blade size 000, is supplied without handle. The stainless steel blade has a sharp edge. This separate shovel can be combined with all kinds of different ATLAS gooseneck shovel handles, shovel handles, shovel handles, bent or double bent handles.
Stainless steel shovels and spades are rust-resistant and smooth, but more susceptible to breakage than boron steel. Therefore, no warranty is given for stainless steel spades and shovels in the event of blade breakage.
Explanation of socket position
The socket position indicates the angle relative to the blade. The higher the socket position, the more angled the socket is. This determines whether a shovel or digging shovel is designed for digging or scooping. The socket position is measured from the ground to the socket when the blade lies flat on the ground.
Straight: the handle stands almost straight on the blade
1/4: the socket is bent 35 mm, for example for digging shovels
1/2: the socket is bent 55 mm, for example for scoop shovels and concrete shovels
3/4: the socket is bent 70cm, for example for scoop shovels and deep shovels
Explanation of blade width
In the past, there were blade widths ranging from number 2 down to 0, with 2 being the largest. Over time, the blades had to become smaller due to working conditions, and smaller size designations were introduced.
The blade sizes for shovels and spades range from large to small: 2 – 1 – 0 – 00 – 000
