The Bulldog Insulated Treaded Digging Spade is a heavy-duty contractor's tool designed for safe digging in environments where underground electrical cables may be present. Manufactured to BS8020 standards, this spade provides essential electrical protection for groundworkers, utility contractors and electricians working on excavation projects.

Forged from a single piece of steel with an epoxy paint coating, this digging spade offers excellent resistance to corrosive substances commonly encountered on construction sites.
