FAQ — Pick Axe Handle

What is a Pick Axe Handle?

A Pick Axe Handle is a replacement handle designed to fit the head of a pick axe, providing leverage, control, and shock absorption during use.

What materials are Pick Axe Handles made from?

They are typically made from hardwood, fibreglass, or reinforced polymer for durability, comfort, and resistance to impact and weather.

How do I replace a Pick Axe Handle?

To replace, remove the old handle, insert the new one through the eye of the pick head, and secure it tightly using wedges or epoxy to prevent loosening.

Are Pick Axe Handles universal?

No. Handle length, shape, and fitting size vary by pick head design, so matching the correct handle type and eye size is essential for safety.

What is the ideal length for a Pick Axe Handle?

Standard handles range from 900 mm to 1000 mm, providing optimal balance between striking power and user control.

How do I maintain a Pick Axe Handle?

Inspect regularly for cracks, splinters, or looseness. Wooden handles can be sanded and oiled; fibreglass handles should be kept clean and free of surface damage.

Which type of handle is best for heavy-duty use?

Fibreglass handles are preferred for professional and outdoor applications due to their superior strength and shock resistance compared to wood.
