This handle is designed specifically for Chillington-style hoe heads. Please verify the dimensions of your existing tool's eye before purchase.
No, this product is the handle only. You may need to reuse your existing wedge or purchase a new one to secure the head.
Keep the handle clean and dry after use. Applying a thin coat of linseed oil annually helps maintain the wood fibers.
It is made of durable, high-quality timber chosen for its strength and ability to absorb shock during gardening tasks.
While you can paint it, we recommend using wood oils or stains, as these penetrate the grain and offer better protection against moisture.
Ensure the handle is fully seated and use a proper metal or wooden wedge to expand the end of the handle inside the eye.
Use a wood rasp or coarse sandpaper to carefully shave down the handle end until it fits snugly into the hoe head.
To install the handle, first remove the old, broken shaft remnants from the hoe eye. You may need to shave the end of the new handle using a rasp or sandpaper to achieve a snug 'friction fit.' Once the head is positioned, use a metal wedge to secure it firmly. To maximize the lifespan of your handle, avoid leaving it submerged in standing water or exposed to extreme heat for prolonged periods. Occasionally applying linseed oil to the wood can prevent cracking and maintain the material's flexibility over several seasons.
