Overview
Marshalltown built the MXS66FRD as a 16 by 4 inch alloy steel masonry trowel, fitted with a DuraSoft handle and weighing half a pound. It sits under Tools, Masonries for concrete finishing work.
A 16 inch blade at this weight points to a finishing or pool trowel rather than a smaller pointing or margin trowel, the kind used to smooth larger poured concrete surfaces. Marshalltown's DuraSoft line is a cushioned grip built to reduce hand fatigue over long finishing passes.

Who it's for
Concrete finishers and DIYers working larger poured slabs or patios need a long, flat trowel like this one. Tight corners or small patch jobs are better served by a smaller margin trowel.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Cushioned DuraSoft handle reduces hand fatigue
- 16 inch blade suits larger surfaces
- Light at 0.5 pounds
- Blade thickness or edge style not specified
- Not sized for tight corner work
Performance notes
The alloy steel blade should hold a flat edge for smoothing wet concrete, while the DuraSoft handle is built to cut down on hand strain during long finishing sessions. At 0.5 pounds the tool stays light for extended use, though blade thickness and edge type are not listed.
