Purpose-built concrete float
The Marshalltown 44 Concrete Float is a hand tool designed to level and smooth fresh concrete before the final finish. Its square end profile allows the blade to reach into corners and along edges where rounded floats cannot. Professional masons and DIY renovators use it to prepare surfaces for troweling or broom finishes.
Lightweight redwood construction
The float body is made from redwood measuring 12 in. long, 5 in. wide and 11/16 in. thick. At a weight of .9 it adds minimal fatigue during extended smoothing passes. A 1 1/4 in. wood handle with a 9 in. handle length provides a secure grip without transmitting excessive vibration to the wrist.
Consistent performance on large pours
Because the redwood blade absorbs minimal water, the tool maintains its flatness and does not warp during sustained use on big slabs. The square corners stay true, so edge work remains accurate from the first pass to the last. The simple all-wood design has no moving parts to loosen or wear out under daily site conditions.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 9" wood handle on the 12x5x11/16 redwood float, and what step is often missed?
The handle is already fixed; no assembly is needed. The step users miss is wiping the redwood surface clean before the first use so wet concrete does not stick.
What maintenance or replacement will the 44 concrete float need later?
Rinse the redwood blade and 1 1/4" handle with water after every pour. Replace the tool when the 11/16" thick blade wears thin or the handle loosens.
What limit appears first during sustained floating of wet concrete?
The 0.9 lb redwood blade absorbs water and softens, reducing stiffness before the 9" handle grip becomes uncomfortable.
