Overview
QEP's 42117 pairs a plastic grip with a stainless steel component in a 9 ounce, single-piece masonry hand tool. The listing does not name the exact tool type beyond the masonry category.
QEP is known primarily for flooring and tile tools, which fits a stainless steel and plastic handled hand tool more than heavy masonry equipment. At 9 ounces this reads as a detail tool rather than something for demolition or mixing, though the specific function, whether trowel, scraper, or otherwise, is not spelled out in the data.
- 9 ounce weight
- Plastic and stainless steel handle
- Sold as 1 piece
- QEP brand, model 42117
Who it's for
