This non-sparking mixing hoe from Ampco Safety Tools features an 8-inch straight blade with a 55-inch fiberglass handle, weighing 3.9 pounds. The H-101FG model is constructed from beryllium copper alloy, making it non-magnetic and corrosion-resistant for safe use around flammable materials and sensitive equipment. Made in the USA, this tool meets the demanding requirements of hazardous work environments where spark prevention is critical.
The fiberglass handle provides electrical insulation and reduces fatigue during extended mixing operations. The tool's non-sparking properties make it suitable for chemical plants, refineries, grain elevators, and other facilities where ignition sources must be eliminated. The straight blade design allows for efficient mixing of concrete, mortar, paint, and other materials in confined spaces or standard containers.
This mixing hoe works well for concrete preparation, paint mixing, and material blending in explosive atmospheres. The 1400mm overall length gives good reach while maintaining control during mixing operations. The non-magnetic properties prevent interference with precision instruments and magnetic detection equipment.
