Faithfull All Steel Cable Laying Shovel

The Faithfull All Steel Cable Laying Shovel is a specialist contractors tool designed for creating narrow trenches for underground cables and conduits. This professional-grade shovel features a solid forged carbon manganese steel blade and socket, correctly tempered to deliver exceptional strength and durability on demanding groundwork projects. The narrow tapered blade measures 270 x 140-115mm, making it ideal for precision trenching work where a standard digging shovel would be too wide. Its tubular steel shaft is welded directly to the socket for a robust, smooth join that eliminates weak points, whilst the powder coated finish provides reliable rust prevention for extended tool life. Designed with contractor comfort in mind, the 700mm shaft is fitted with a wide and deep MYD hilt that accommodates large hands and bulky work gloves. The wooden cross dowel handle adds further comfort during extended use. This all-steel construction shovel is particularly suited to utility work, landscaping projects, and electrical installations where narrow cable channels are required.
