FAQs
What type of wood is this handle made from?
The handle is made from sturdy beechwood, known for its strength and durability.
What are the exact dimensions of the handle?
The handle is 900mm (approximately 35 inches) long and 30mm (approximately 1.2 inches) wide.
Will this handle fit any mattock head?
It is designed to fit standard size mattock heads and is specifically compatible with Amtech model A2315. It's advisable to check the dimensions of your mattock head for confirmation.
Is the mattock head included with this handle?
No, this product is only the replacement handle. The mattock head must be purchased separately.
How do I attach a mattock head to this handle?
Insert the tapered end of the mattock head into the opening at the end of the handle. Some heads may require a wedge for a secure fit.
How should I care for the beechwood handle?
Clean with a damp cloth, avoid prolonged water exposure, and store in a dry location. Periodic wood oil treatment can help maintain its condition.
Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose in the mattock head.
Ensure the mattock head is fully seated on the handle. If your head requires a wedge, insert and secure it firmly. If the fit is consistently loose, consider if the handle width is compatible with your specific mattock head.
Wood appears dry or cracked.
Apply a small amount of wood oil (e.g., linseed oil) to the affected areas and allow it to soak in. Store the handle in a more stable environment, away from extreme dryness or heat.
Difficulty inserting mattock head.
Check for any debris or obstructions in the mattock head's socket or on the end of the handle. Ensure you are using the correct end of the handle, which is typically tapered.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a replacement handle. To set up, insert the pointed end of the mattock head into the appropriately sized opening at one end of the handle. Ensure a snug fit. Some mattock heads may require a wedge to be fully secured; check the requirements of your specific mattock head.
Compatibility: This 900mm (35 inch) handle with a 30mm (1.2 inch) width is designed to fit standard size mattock heads. It is confirmed to be compatible with Amtech model number A2315. Always measure your existing head or refer to the specifications of the mattock head you intend to use to ensure a proper fit.
Care: To maintain the beechwood, clean the handle with a slightly damp cloth after use. Avoid soaking the wood in water. Store the handle in a dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperature fluctuations, to prevent warping or cracking. Occasional application of wood oil can help preserve the finish and protect against moisture.
