SB3006 Metal Ice Shovel 13cm 45# Steel Head with Wooden Handle
The SB3006 is a chisel type metal ice shovel for breaking and lifting compacted ice and frozen snow off driveways, footpaths, loading bays and yard surfaces. It is bought by hardware distributors, municipal and facility buyers and contractors who need a tool that survives being driven into frozen ground rather than a plastic scoop that snaps in the cold. The head is 45# steel, 1.8mm thick and 13cm wide, quench hardened to HRC42-52, fitted to a D32 by 1050mm wooden handle for a 47.2″ (120cm) overall length. SONJUN supplies it on container programmes with OEM branding and accepts a sample order first.
- Quenched 45# steel head at HRC42-52 holds an edge against ice that blunts a mild steel blade in a single shift
- 1.8mm head thickness resists bending when the operator levers under a frozen slab
- 13cm head width concentrates force into a narrow line so the ice cracks instead of absorbing the blow
- 120cm overall length lets the operator work upright rather than bent over a driveway
- D32mm wooden handle absorbs shock better than a bare steel tube on repeated impacts in low temperatures
- OEM branding and buyer packaging available for distributors carrying their own hardware line

Application Scenarios
- Municipal crews breaking ice off pavements, crossings and steps after a freeze thaw cycle
- Facility teams clearing frozen ruts from loading bays, ramps and fire exits
- Snow clearing contractors following a plough to free compacted ice at kerbs and gullies
- Farm and rural yards where water freezes across gateways and troughs
- Hardware retailers stocking a heavy duty winter tool alongside plastic snow shovels
Who It Is For
- Importers and distributors of hand tools and winter hardware
- Municipal and highway maintenance departments
- Property and facility management contractors
- Agricultural and rural supply dealers
- Retail chains running a winter seasonal range
Problems It Solves
- Plastic snow shovels ride over compacted ice and break at the blade root when forced
- Unhardened steel blades roll their edge on the first frozen ridge and stop cutting
- Thin pressed heads bend when used as a lever, which is exactly how crews use them
- Short handled tools force crews to work bent over, slowing a long footpath route
- Steel tube handles transmit impact shock straight to the hands in cold weather

How It Compares
Against Plastic snow shovel with long handle
The plastic shovel moves loose snow in volume and is much lighter. It will not break compacted ice; the 45# steel head at HRC42-52 is the tool for that job.
Against Aluminium alloy shovel
The aluminium head at HB60-69 is far lighter for lifting and moving material, but it is not hardened for chopping into frozen ground.
Against Unhardened pressed steel ice chisel
An unhardened head rolls its edge quickly. This head is quench hardened to HRC42-52 before it leaves the line.
Use Guide
- Work along the edge of a frozen slab rather than hammering into the middle of it
- Use short controlled chopping strokes and let the head weight do the work
- Lever gently once the ice cracks; do not use the handle as a long prybar under full body weight
- Keep the head free of packed ice so the blade keeps its bite
- Dry the head and store the tool under cover so the steel does not rust between seasons
