Midwest Rake 36″ Landscape Rake Replacement Blade
Midwest Rake’s rakes are some of the most durable rakes on the market, incredibly handy, and are perfect for professional groundskeepers. Being much lighter than traditional field rakes and lutes, they’re easier to store, transport, and use, and their durability won’t let up, even under outdoor elements. The secret to their durability and easy portability are their magnesium blades, which are much stronger and lighter than aluminum, and while they are extremely durable, everything breaks down over time (even if it’s a very long time). When this happens, instead of buying a whole new rake, you’ll have the option to purchase a replacement blade to keep your field looking excellent at a fraction of the cost. The handle is not included when ordering just the replacement head.
