Round Point Shovel with 48 in Fiberglass Handle
The Nupla round point shovel is built for general digging and soil moving in residential and light commercial settings. Its non-sparking, chemical and corrosion resistant construction makes it suitable for environments where metal tools could create ignition hazards or degrade quickly. The 48 inch straight fiberglass handle provides reach and leverage for a variety of users.
16 Gauge Steel Blade and Fiberglass Handle
The blade uses 16 gauge steel with a black finish and a standard step for foot pressure during digging. Fiberglass handle material resists weather, chemicals and splintering better than wood, while the yellow colour improves visibility on site. The straight handle design supports a natural grip posture for repetitive shovelling tasks.
11 1/2 in Blade Length Determines Digging Capacity
The blade measures 11 1/2 inches long and 9 inches wide, setting the volume of material moved per scoop. Buyers who need a wider or longer blade for trenching or moving loose bulk material faster should consider a different blade profile. The overall length of 59 1/2 inches fixes the tool's reach and storage footprint.
