Thanks to the slim shape and the highly bent socket, a cable shovel is ideal for scooping out trenches. Handy when laying fiber optic, irrigation or underground cable. ATLAS DIAMANT cable shovels are popular among, among others, civil engineering and infrastructure companies, road builders, landscapers and in construction.

A cable shovel is also called a banana shovel.

ATLAS and ATLAS DIAMANT cable shovels are available in various versions, both with and without a handle.

Explanation of socket position

The socket angle indicates the angle relative to the blade. The higher the socket angle, the more inclined the socket is. This determines whether a shovel or spade is intended for thrusting into the ground or for scooping. The socket angle is measured from the ground to the socket, with the blade lying flat on the ground.

Straight: the handle is almost straight relative to the blade.

1/4: the socket is bent up by 35 mm, for example for digging shovels

1/2: the socket is bent up 55 mm, for example for scoop shovels and concrete shovels
