STEEL SHOVEL WITH HANDLE
A steel shovel with a handle is a very common and versatile tool used for digging, scooping, and transporting loose materials such as soil, gravel, mulch, and snow. It is a basic tool for many gardening and landscaping tasks.
Steel shovels are known for their durability and are built to withstand tough use.
Here are some of the different parts of a steel shovel:
- Blade: The blade is the flat, metal part of the shovel that is used for digging and scooping. Steel blades are strong and durable, but they can also be heavy.
- Shank: The shank is the metal neck that connects the blade to the handle. It provides strength and leverage.
- Handle: The handle is the long part of the shovel that you grip to use it. Handles can be made of wood, metal, or fiberglass. Wood handles are classic and comfortable to grip, but they can be heavy and prone to rot. Metal handles are durable and lightweight, but they can be cold to the touch in the winter. Fiberglass handles are a good compromise between wood and metal; they are lightweight, durable, and comfortable to grip.
- Socket, or D-grip: The socket, or D-grip, is the cup-shaped end of the handle that connects to the shank. It provides a secure grip for your hand.
Here are some factors to consider when choosing a steel shovel with a handle:
- Blade size and shape: The size and shape of the blade will depend on the type of work you will be doing. Round blades are good for general digging, while square blades are better for scooping.
- Blade material: Steel is the most common material for shovel blades, but there are also shovels with blades made of aluminum or composite materials. Steel blades are strong and durable, but they can also be heavy. Aluminum blades are lighter than steel blades, but they may not be as durable. Composite blades can be a good compromise between steel and aluminum; they are lighter than steel but stronger than aluminum.
- Handle length: The length of the handle will affect your leverage and reach. Longer handles provide more leverage for digging tough materials, while shorter handles may be easier to maneuver in tight spaces.
- Handle material: As mentioned previously, handles can be made of wood, metal, or fiberglass. Choose a handle material that is comfortable for you to grip and that is appropriate for the weight of the shovel.
A steel shovel with a handle is a valuable tool for any homeowner or gardener. With proper care, a good quality steel shovel can last for many years.
