Fork – Steel – Digging

Product Overview

The Heavy Duty All Steel Fork features a 710mm handle and a 280mm forged head, making it ideal for heavy-duty digging, turning, and breaking up compacted soil, clay, or aggregate. Its solid steel construction offers superior strength compared to wooden-handled models, ensuring suitability for demanding site and landscaping work. The four square-section prongs efficiently penetrate dense materials, while the tubular shaft and welded YD grip provide firm handling under pressure. The tool is finished with a durable red powder coating for corrosion resistance and high visibility on site.
