Westward 3YU82 Round Point Shovel
The Westward 3YU82 is a 14 gauge steel round point shovel with a 48 inch yellow fiberglass handle. It is built for digging and moving soil in landscaping and construction tasks. The non-sparking, corrosion resistant design suits environments where chemical exposure is a concern. The overall length measures 60 inches for extended reach.
Fiberglass handle for heavy digging
The straight fiberglass handle resists weather and chemical damage better than wood. The 12 inch blade length and 9 inch width move substantial material per scoop. A standard step on the blade lets the user apply foot pressure for deeper penetration. The fixed handle eliminates loose connections during hard prying.
Upgrades from wood handled shovels
This model replaces traditional wood handled shovels that splinter or rot over time. The fiberglass construction reduces vibration transfer to the hands during impact. The jump is worth it for crews working daily in wet or chemically treated soils. It is not for buyers needing a detachable handle for compact storage.
