Suitable for outdoor use on construction sites, patios, driveways, paths and more, this yard broom is made using ultra tough, heavy duty polypropylene that is ideal for fast, efficient sweeping of heavy debris such as building rubble, gravel, mud and wet leaves. It is also resistant to acids, alkalis and many common chemicals, making it ideal for both industrial and domestic use. The head is 80mm deep, greater than standard platform brooms, giving a larger bristle mass which together with long fibres gives outstanding sweeping performance. The head comes with a push fit socket made from heavy duty plastic for attaching a handle, which prevents breakage at the union of handle and head. A 28mm (1 1/8") diameter wooden handle is required that can be secured in place via a small self tapping screw (not supplied) through a pre-drilled hole in the socket.
