The Timco 7-inch Gauging Trowel is an essential tool for professional masons and construction workers who require precision when mixing, measuring, or applying mortar and plaster. Built with a forged solid steel shank and a durable 1.2 mm blade, it offers excellent longevity for demanding site conditions, though users should note that the 7-inch size is specifically optimized for small-to-medium volume work rather than large-scale screeding projects.

No, the handle is integrated into the shank design for maximum durability and is not intended for user replacement.
While it is durable enough for mixing, the 7-inch size is designed for gauging and small applications; a larger mixing paddle or shovel is recommended for large batches.
The blade is constructed from high-quality steel with a 1.2 mm gauge and a lacquered finish.
The finger guard is low-profile and ergonomically positioned to provide safety without restricting natural wrist motion or grip adjustment.
Avoid using metal scrapers which can damage the lacquer; instead, soak the blade briefly in water and wipe clean with a stiff nylon brush.
Ensure the blade is kept clean and consider wiping it with a light oil before mixing to create a non-stick barrier.
Check the tang connection for debris buildup; if the handle itself is loose, contact the manufacturer regarding the tool warranty.
Use a fine-grit abrasive pad to remove surface oxidation and then re-apply a protective layer of machine oil.
No assembly is required for the Timco Gauging Trowel; it arrives ready for immediate use on the job site. To ensure maximum longevity, wipe the blade clean with a damp cloth immediately after use to prevent cement and mortar from hardening on the lacquered surface. For long-term storage, apply a thin coat of machine oil to the blade to prevent oxidation, especially if stored in damp site boxes. The trowel is compatible with all standard cement-based mortars, plasters, and adhesive compounds.
