This pushbroom uses a combination of stiff inner fibers that handle concrete, asphalt and wood and soft outer fibers that sweep fine dirt and dust from all surfaces - making it ideal for sweeping medium textured surfaces. The broom's "split-tip" fibers are set in a quality, 18 in resin block that won't warp, rot or crack. A 60 in steel handle completes the broom set and is locked into the broom block with tight grip connector.
