This placer features a strong heavy-duty aluminum blade. Provides a strong wide base for moving wet cement. The 60 degree angle on the blade provides optimal curve, or “right angle” to push or pull material into place as you spread and level the concrete. The head features a hook for moving rebar and mesh when laying down concrete. The blade is welded to the handle for exceptional toughness on the job. Two (2) aluminum braces connect the blade to the handle for strength and rigid nests in the hardest of materials. A 60in blue anodized aluminum handle with foam grip completes to tool. The handle measures 1-3/8in. In diameter for a comfortable grip. The handle is anodized to prevent hands from turning black from oxidation. Proudly made in the USA.
