NEO tools axe, plastic head, 0.85 kg, 60 cm handle, model 27-032

NEO tools axe, plastic head, 0.85 kg, 60 cm handle, model 27-032 is a general-purpose hand axe designed for light chopping, trimming and cutting tasks around the garden and household. The lightweight 0.85 kg head and 60 cm handle provide a balance between control and reach, while the plastic head reduces rebound and minimises damage to striking surfaces. This tool is intended for occasional use where manoeuvrability and safer impact behaviour are preferred over heavy-duty splitting.

Advantages

This NEO tools axe combines a plastic head with a moderate mass to reduce bounce and vibration on impact, improving control during repetitive light chopping. The 60 cm handle offers extended reach and leverage for controlled swings without excessive force. The compact overall weight and ergonomic balance make the tool easier to handle for users with varying strength levels. Materials chosen for the head and handle resist surface damage and simplify maintenance compared with bare-metal striking heads.

Suitable for

• Pruning small branches and trimming hedges
• Cutting kindling and preparing small firewood
• Light landscaping tasks and garden clearance
• DIY projects requiring controlled chopping or shaping of wood

Key specifications

• Head material: plastic impact head designed to reduce rebound
• Head weight: 0.85 kg
• Handle length: 60 cm for increased reach and leverage
• Overall use category: light-duty axe for garden and household tasks
• Balance: designed for controlled swings and reduced vibration

How to use

Grip the 60 cm handle firmly with both hands positioned to suit the required swing—one hand near the head for precise cuts, both hands spaced along the handle for more power. Aim at the target wood while maintaining a steady stance and controlled motion. Use short, measured swings for trimming and longer, controlled strokes for cutting small logs or kindling. Inspect the plastic head and handle for damage before each use and avoid striking metal, stone or other hard materials that could damage the head.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Use the axe on suitable wooden targets and avoid high-impact tasks intended for metal-headed splitting axes. Store the tool in a dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the handle and plastic head. Regularly check for loose fittings or surface damage and replace the tool if structural integrity is compromised.
