8-inch Polypropylene Leaf Rake
The Midwest Rake 40881GRA is a lightweight leaf rake built for homeowners clearing grass, leaves and light debris from lawns and beds. Its 14 polypropylene tines span an 8-inch width and measure 4 1/2 inches long, while a 42-inch straight wood handle provides reach without excessive bending. The tool is new and ready for seasonal yard work.
Replaces worn or narrow rakes
Swapping to this model makes sense when an old rake’s tines have cracked, bent or fallen out, or when a narrower head slows down cleanup on open ground. The 14-tine polypropylene head gives a wider gathering path than many basic models, so fewer passes are needed to cover the same area. The jump is worth it for anyone who wants a durable, corrosion-resistant head on a familiar wood handle.
Capacity and headroom
The 8-inch head and 14 tines comfortably handle dry leaves, grass clippings and light thatch on typical residential lawns. Wet, matted leaves or heavy pine cones increase resistance and can overload the tines, so the rake works best with frequent, light passes rather than deep, forceful pulls. The 42-inch handle suits average-height users; taller gardeners may find the reach limiting for extended use.

Questions about this item
Will the 42 in wood handle fit my existing rake head bracket?
The handle is a straight 42 in wood shaft designed for this head; it does not use a separate bracket so you simply attach the supplied head.
How do I secure the 14 polypropylene tines to the 42 in wood handle without stripping the holes?
Align the head, start the screws by hand, then tighten evenly with a screwdriver — over-torquing the wood is the common mistake.
When should I replace the 14 polypropylene tines on this 8 in wide head?
Replace them when tines crack, lose flexibility, or no longer gather leaves cleanly; the wood handle can stay in service if undamaged.
