Frequently asked questions

Is this shovel insulated for work near live cables?

Yes. It is built to BS8020:2011 and carries a 1000V insulation rating, so it is suitable for digging around live or buried electrical services.

What is the blade made from and how is it finished?

The blade is steel with a dark blue epoxy coating, which helps resist corrosion, and it has rounded corners to reduce the risk of catching or damaging pipes and cables while you dig.

What are the dimensions and weight?

The shovel is 1200mm long, with a 125mm wide, 40mm deep blade, and it weighs 2.0kg.

What is the handle made from?

The D-handle is orange polyfibre with a fibreglass core, giving a comfortable, secure grip, and the shaft is tempered for strength.

What does "treaded" mean on this shovel?

It refers to the treaded collar above the blade, which gives a secure, boot-driven foothold when you are pushing the blade into the ground.

Is this shovel suitable for general excavation as well as cable laying?

Yes. While it is built for cable and pipe laying, it is equally suited to general digging on construction and facilities jobs.
