T-Stiel ATLAS für Doppelfederspaten, Länge 110 cm

Ideal spade handle ATLAS made of ash wood, length 110 cm, fitted with a smooth, narrow point and a strong through-mount T-grip. This handle is, among others, suitable for Ideal spades with double springs. For assembly a 50 mm rivet is recommended (article number 651620, including assembly advice).

ATLAS Ideal spade handles are made from ash butt sections, which contain the best wood. Ash wood is tough, shock-resistant and strong. The ash wood undergoes two drying processes: during the first drying process the sawn ash planks are air-dried. During the second process the ash wood is re-dried in a climate chamber under computer control. By re-drying the handle does not shrink, tools remain firmly attached to the handle and the through-mount T-grip can be pressed onto the handle without glue or staples.

Finally, the ATLAS handles are waxed with plant-based carnauba. This ensures that the wood can breathe, does not absorb water or dirt and retains its beautiful natural colour. Waxing provides a longer lifespan and a pleasant smooth handle, preventing blisters. Moreover, plant-based waxing of handles is better for the environment than using varnish or paraffin.

ATLAS spade handles are manufactured completely energy-neutral in the Netherlands and are available in various lengths and versions.
