The RST Flooring Trowel (16" x 4.5") is designed for concrete finishers needing precision in tight spaces. Its pointed carbon steel blade excels at reaching corners and confined areas during concrete floating. While durable, the wooden handle requires proper care to maintain grip and integrity over time. Key features include a robust carbon steel blade, a specifically shaped wooden handle, and a wide blade surface for efficient material application.

The pointed tip allows for precise work in corners, edges, and confined areas, making it ideal for detailed concrete finishing where standard rounded trowels cannot easily access.
After each use, clean the blade thoroughly, dry it completely, and apply a light coat of tool oil to prevent rust. Store in a dry place.
Yes, the handle is fitted with ten rivets for greater strength and durability. However, like all wooden tools, it benefits from proper care to maintain its integrity.
The blade dimensions are 16 inches in length by 4.5 inches in width (400 x 114mm).
While it can be used for large areas, its pointed design is most advantageous for detailed work. For extremely large, flat surfaces without many edges or corners, a trowel with a rounded tip might offer slightly faster coverage.
It is best suited for finishing concrete projects that involve working in tight spaces, such as basement floors, small patios, sidewalks, or areas around fixtures and walls.
Clean the blade thoroughly with a fine-grade steel wool, then immediately dry and apply a light coat of tool oil. Ensure proper drying and oiling after every use.
Inspect the rivets. If they appear loose or damaged, professional repair or replacement may be necessary. Ensure the handle is kept dry to prevent wood swelling or shrinking.
Soak the blade in water for a short period before cleaning. Use a more abrasive brush or a scraper for stubborn residue. Ensure the blade is completely dry afterward.
Setup: No assembly is required. The RST Flooring Trowel is ready for immediate use upon unboxing.
Compatibility: This trowel is designed for use with standard concrete mixes and finishing techniques. It is compatible with various concrete finishing processes.
