An asphalt rake or construction rake from Talen Tools stands out from other rakes thanks to its high-quality materials. For example, the working blade is not made of plastic or galvanized steel, but rather forged steel. This wear-resistant steel does not break easily, does not warp easily, and is not prone to rust. The thick handle, with a diameter of 38 millimeters, is 130 centimeters long. Thanks to this substantial width, the risk of the handle breaking is extremely low. In addition, a wax coating has been applied to the wood. This repels dirt and moisture, ensuring the wood remains strong and attractive for a long time.
Asphalt rake with extra reinforcement Because the rake is subjected to a lot of wear and tear, extra reinforcement has been added. This ensures that the impact on the rake is well distributed, so the material remains durable against heavier materials and weights. The reinforcement also makes the rake slightly longer. Despite the 130-centimeter handle, the rake is still just under 170 centimeters long in total. This still gives you a wide reach. Moreover, it allows the average adult to perform the work with a straight back.
Wide Construction Rake For raking asphalt, construction debris, or other larger materials, it’s best to choose a wide rake. The wider the rake, the faster you can rake larger areas. It’s important to focus on the material you’re working with. A wider rake will also have to withstand heavier impacts. Thanks to the forged steel construction, you don’t have to worry about the tines breaking. The 16 tines stand upright and span a width of 40 centimeters, making them highly efficient at raking. Since you’re working with heavy material, it’s important to keep your back straight. Avoid bending forward, as this puts pressure on your lower back and can cause discomfort.
