Professional Finishing Tool

The Westward 13A742 is an 18 inch square-end trowel built for smoothing concrete, drywall, plaster and masonry surfaces. Its high carbon steel blade provides the rigidity needed for consistent finishing passes. The 4 inch blade width covers ground efficiently on walls and slabs. An ErgoSoft handle reduces hand fatigue during extended use.

Best For Flatwork Finishers

This trowel suits tradespeople and serious DIYers who need a durable, straight blade for final smoothing and levelling. It is not for buyers who require a notched profile for adhesive or thin-set application. Workers needing a pointed or rounded blade shape for corners and curves should look at a different tool style. The fixed handle does not allow for adjustable-angle work.

18 Inch Carbon Steel Blade

The 18 inch blade length is the primary specification that determines coverage per pass and finishing quality on large flat areas. High carbon steel resists flexing under pressure to maintain a true surface. A shorter blade would increase work time on expansive pours; a longer blade adds weight and reduces control in tight spots. The 4 inch width balances maneuverability with surface contact.

Questions about this item

Will this 18 in square-end trowel work on the same plaster walls I usually finish with a smaller blade?

The 18 in carbon-steel blade covers more area per pass than narrower trowels, so it smooths large plaster or drywall sections faster while still fitting into standard corners.

What do I need to start using this trowel right after unboxing?

No extra tools or accessories are required; the ErgoSoft handle is already fitted and the blade arrives ready for concrete, plaster or masonry finishing.

How can I confirm the blade is sitting flat and giving an even finish on the first wall?

Run the square end across fresh material — consistent pressure and a uniform, ripple-free surface show the high-carbon steel blade is flat and performing correctly.
