Spaten - Kabelspaten

A drainage spade or drainagespade has a very narrow blade. Thanks to the narrow shape, a cable shovel is ideal for digging trenches when laying fiber-optic, irrigation and electrical cables. Drainage spades are available with an ash wood, hickory or glass-fiber handle. Some drainage spades have a step on the blade so footwear is not damaged. For wider models, see our spades.
