This 24 in rough surface push broom features coarse bristles for sweeping debris on surfaces like asphalt and sidewalks. This broom also features an innovative and heavy duty steel brace. The brace is reinforced through a dual rivet connection to the handle and is screwed onto the broom head for additional reinforcement. The unobtrusive shape of the brace enables you to sweep under or beside objects without facing obstruction that a traditional A-line brace creates. The wood handle is smooth and features an end grip for added comfort while sweeping.
