Nupla 76548 post hole digger is suitable for heavy-duty digging in hard soils. Its non-conductive properties make it ideal for utility, railroad, highway and electrical jobs.
Features:
- It features two straight handles that are made of Nuplaglas via the pultrusion process, which uses a unique resin material and thousands of strands of fibreglass, offering excellent strength and safety in wet conditions.
- The blades are made of 12 gauge steel and have a 6-1/2 inch jaw spread. When jabbed into the ground, it creates a hole deep enough for setting fence / sign posts.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is pultrusion?
A. Pultrusion is a composite synthesis process where the fibres are pulled through a heated die. When constant pressure is applied to resin, it starts to melt and impregnate the fibrous reinforcement. This makes the products lightweight & non-conductive, as well as extremely resistant to corrosion and rot.
Q. What is the purpose of a butt grip in this vertical digger?
A. The handle features a butt grip that prevents slippage in wet conditions. It also reduces arm strain and fatigue.
Q. What is the purpose of the safety orange colour?
A. Nupla 4 ft post hole digger is manufactured in safety orange colour for easy identification of the tool on the job site and providing electrical insulation.
