How the Treadlite Broadfork is Made...
About the Treadlite Broadfork Head:
Lightest Broadfork in it's class
Care has been taken to use the highest grade materials from Gr 80 HSLA Steel Tines, ASTM A519 Tubing and Chromoly Tubing (think NASCAR roll cage) we have sourced some of the highest grades available to provide flawless operation for years to come.
"Through Tube" Technology
Provides superior strength as the socketed handle mount is inserted through the tube rather than relying on welds alone.Does not allow moisture build-up in the tube or socket ensuring your handles will remain dry and not rot over time.
Geometric Design
The handle socket that goes through the step tube creates a stronger joint on the Treadlite Broadfork. The socket weld is almost unnecessary unlike other broadforks on the market that could fail over time due to a reliance on welds.
Grade 80 Steel
Provides maximum toughness and corrosion resistance Made from the same steel as our military Humvee replacements
Powder Coat Finish
Protects your tool year after year
Made in America
Cut, welded and painted in Wisconsin
Round Step Tube
Provides a continuous surface on which to apply force at any angle
Tine lengths are true 12" actual length from the step tube


About the Handles:
Wood Handles are milled from straight grain North American White Ash
Harvested by a family logging business in Eastern MaineSame as the bats in the major leagues due to durability, strength, and lightweight
Steel handles are made from high strength chromoly steel
Same as used in race cars for its strength and lightweight
All handles are 48" length
