Splitting maul handle - splitting axe handle ATLAS 90 cm, head size 60 x 35 mm, for Ochsenkopf axe

Splitting maul handle or splitting axe handle ATLAS made of ash wood, with head dimensions of 60 x 35 mm and a length of 90 cm, suitable for Ochsenkopf splitting axes. Due to the oval shape of the handle, the axe head is always in the correct striking direction. For mounting the handle, the axe wedge set with article number 651815 is recommended (wooden wedge 70 x 80 mm and 2 metal wedges no. 4 22 mm).

ATLAS splitting maul handles are made from ash rootstocks, which contain the best wood. Ash wood is tough, shock-absorbing, and strong. The ash wood undergoes two drying processes: during the first drying process, sawn ash wood boards are air-dried. During the second process, the ash wood is computer-controlled re-dried in a climate chamber. Because of the re-drying, the handle does not shrink and the axe head stays rock-solid on the handle.

The ATLAS handle is then waxed with plant-based carnauba. This ensures that the wood can breathe, does not absorb water or dirt, and retains its beautiful natural color. Waxing provides a longer service life and a pleasantly smooth handle, helping prevent blisters. In addition, plant-based waxing of handles is better for the environment than using varnish or paraffin.

ATLAS splitting maul handles are manufactured entirely carbon-neutrally in the Netherlands and are available in various lengths and versions.
