Amtech Asphalt & Tarmac Rake 1500mm

MPN: A2595 | Barcode: 5032759052394

This heavy-duty asphalt and tarmac rake is designed for spreading, levelling and dressing aggregate materials during surface preparation and repair work. Suitable for driveway repairs, paths and small road patching, it helps create a consistent surface finish before compaction.

The wide rake head and long 1500mm handle provide improved reach and control, allowing material to be distributed evenly across larger areas. This makes it suitable for contractors, landscapers and groundwork applications where efficiency and consistent levelling are required.

The forged steel head and tubular steel handle provide strength and durability when working with dense materials such as asphalt and aggregate, helping maintain control during spreading and finishing.

What This Rake Is Used For

This rake is used during the levelling and dressing stage of asphalt and aggregate installation. It is typically used after placing material and before compaction to achieve an even surface finish.

• Spreading asphalt and tarmac across driveways and paths.
• Levelling and dressing freshly laid materials.
• Preparing surfaces prior to compaction or rolling.
• Distributing aggregate during groundwork and repair tasks.

Key Performance Benefits

• Wide 435mm Head: Covers more area per pass for efficient spreading.
• Long 1500mm Handle: Provides extended reach and better leverage.
• Controlled Material Distribution: Helps achieve a consistent surface level.
• Heavy-Duty Construction: Suitable for repeated use in demanding site conditions.

Why Choose This Rake

This rake is selected for larger surface areas where increased reach and coverage are needed. The extended handle reduces the need for repositioning, while the wide head improves efficiency when spreading and levelling materials.

Compared to shorter or lighter rakes, this model is better suited to contractor use where durability, control and consistent surface preparation are required.

How It Fits Into The Job

This rake is used as part of a standard surface repair workflow:

• Step 1: Apply tarmac or aggregate material to the repair area.
• Step 2: Use the rake to spread and level the material evenly.
• Step 3: Compact or roll the surface to complete the repair.

Quick Use Guide

Use the rake while the material remains workable to achieve a smooth and even finish before compaction.

• Preparation: Ensure the area is clean and ready for material placement.
• Spreading: Pull material into position using steady strokes.
• Levelling: Work from edges inward to maintain consistent depth.
• After Use: Clean the rake head to prevent material build-up.
