Digging Bar – 25mm (TIMCO)
From £20.66 ex VAT
Product Overview
Digging Bar – 25mm (TIMCO) is a solid EN9 carbon steel tool designed for breaking compacted ground, brickwork and concrete, as well as prying and levering stubborn materials. The pointed end concentrates impact into hard surfaces, while the angled chisel end provides a broader working edge for loosening ground, separating materials and applying leverage.
Its drop-forged, hardened and tempered construction suits demanding fencing, demolition, landscaping and groundwork tasks. Choose the 1200mm bar for easier handling, controlled work and tighter areas, or the 1500mm bar when additional reach and leverage are required. Their substantial 5kg and 6kg weights help transfer force into difficult ground, although controlled two-handed handling is essential. The hexagonal shank provides a secure hold and helps prevent the tool from rolling when placed on the ground.

Frequently Asked Questions
ToggleQ. Which length should I choose?
A. The 1200mm bar is lighter and easier to control in restricted working areas. The 1500mm bar provides greater reach and leverage for more demanding breaking and levering tasks.
Q. Are these digging bars suitable for preparing fence-post holes?
A. Yes. They are useful for breaking compacted soil, clay, stones and other hard material encountered during post-hole preparation. A spade or post-hole digger will still be required to remove loosened material.
Q. What is each end used for?
A. The pointed end concentrates impact for breaking hard ground, concrete and brickwork. The angled chisel end is intended for prying, levering and loosening materials.
Q. Are these insulated digging bars?
A. No electrical insulation rating is stated by TIMCO. They should not be used as insulated tools or where live buried services may be present.
