Taparia FHSA 800 Fiberglass Handle Steel Axe Weigh (Gms): 800

The Taparia FHSA 800 is a steel axe with a fibreglass handle, listed by Taparia at a weight of 800 g. Taparia makes its fibreglass handle steel axes generally conforming to IS 703:1999 and IS 2891:1975. The steel head takes a sharp, durable edge for chopping firewood, splitting small logs, cutting branches and clearing undergrowth. The fibreglass handle does not rot, swell or crack with moisture the way a wooden handle can, and it stays firmly fixed in the head. It also absorbs some of the shock of each blow, which makes longer work less tiring for the hands and arms. The 800 g size suits farmers, gardeners, campers and maintenance crews who need an axe that is light enough to carry yet heavy enough for general chopping. Keep the edge sharp and covered when not in use, check that the head is tight before each job, and keep a clear swing area around you while chopping.
