Insulated Mini Post Hole Digger 54” – Fibreglass (Sitemate)
£65.00 ex VAT
Product Overview
Insulated Mini Post Hole Digger 54” – Fibreglass (Sitemate) is a compact double-bladed tool for removing loosened soil and debris from narrow post holes. The opposing blades collect spoil vertically, helping installers maintain a smaller hole diameter than would normally be possible with a conventional spade. It is particularly useful when installing smaller fencing posts in domestic and light industrial applications.
The 1370mm fibreglass construction provides useful reach and is rated to BS 8020 for 1000V electrical protection. This makes the tool suitable for controlled digging where buried electrical services present an identified risk. It is primarily intended for extracting loosened material; compacted soil, clay, roots or rubble may first require an appropriate insulated graft or digging tool. Insulation must always be supported by service detection and safe digging procedures.
