W.Rose Philadelphia Brick Trowel

The W. Rose Philadelphia Brick Trowel is a premium-grade masonry trowel designed for bricklayers and blocklayers who demand performance and durability on the job. The square-heel Philadelphia blade profile is the most popular choice for block work, thanks to its square edges that hold large amounts of mortar with ease — helping you work faster and more efficiently.

The blade and shank are forged from a single piece of uniquely formulated carbon steel, eliminating the internal voids that can result from welding and ensuring the tool will not weaken or crack under pressure. Blades are heat-tempered using a special, time-tested process for uniform hardness throughout, and each blade is carefully hand-polished to keep mortar centred and resist sliding. Available in blade lengths from 9" to 11".
