What’s so special about forged shovels?

Forged shovels are built to be stronger and more durable so they stand up to the toughest of job-site conditions Every forged shovel is made from a single piece of steel billet that is hammered and compressed while hot to form the head, neck (shank) and socket.

As the metal is shaped during the forging process, its internal grain is modified to match the shape of the part. As a result, the grain is continuous throughout the part, creating a single-piece shovel head that is dramatically stronger than a cast or machined part.

Key Features

• Thicker and heavier head than traditional stamped steel.
• Solid shank in the neck joins the blade and the socket providing maximum strength.
• Made from a single piece of steel billet.
• Sharp blade edge penetrates ground more easily.
• Forged blades lack the traditional “frog”. Thus, they don’t collect and hold material.
