5 lb Pick Mattock with 36 in Fiberglass Handle
This Nupla pick mattock combines a 5 lb steel head with a 36 in fiberglass handle for demolition and landscaping tasks. The head measures 18 1/2 in long with a 9 1/2 in adze blade and a pick point. A rubber cushioned grip is fitted to the handle for vibration dampening.
Who This Suits
It suits users who need a heavy striking tool for breaking hard ground, clay or packed gravel. The fiberglass handle resists splintering and absorbs shock better than wood. Builders who require a lighter head or a shorter handle for confined spaces should look elsewhere.
5 lb Head Weight
The 5 lb head weight determines the impact energy delivered per swing. Heavier heads drive the pick or adze deeper but require more strength to control. Lighter heads reduce fatigue but may need more blows to achieve the same penetration.

Questions about this item
How often will the 5 lb steel head need re-sharpening or replacement?
The 5 lb steel head on the Nupla 24552 pick mattock is built for heavy digging and prying; re-sharpen the pick and adze edges with a file whenever they dull, and replace the head only if cracking or excessive mushrooming appears.
What part of the 36 in fiberglass handle reaches its limit first during all-day trenching?
The fiberglass handle absorbs shock, but the rubber cushioned grip will show wear or splitting before the glass fibers fatigue under sustained 36 in leverage.
How much heat builds up in the rubber grip after continuous swinging?
The rubber cushioned grip stays near ambient temperature because the fiberglass handle does not conduct heat from the steel head, so the grip remains comfortable during extended use.
