Execute precise, high-pressure finishing passes in tight formwork and narrow slab layouts. The Marshalltown MXS57D Narrow Finishing Trowel pairs a maneuverable 14-inch blade length with a streamlined 3-inch width for maximum control in restricted spaces.
Standard 4-inch or 5-inch flatwork trowels can feel clumsy or bind along narrow sidewalk borders, utility channels, and curb radiuses. The MXS57D solves this with a sleek 3-inch blade profile that glides effortlessly through tight spaces without catching form margins. Because the blade surface area is reduced, this tool allows finishers to concentrate their downward physical leverage—making it significantly easier to consolidate stiff concrete mixes, pull up cream, and burnish surfaces tight during final trowel passes.
Narrow 3-Inch Blade Blueprint: Navigates narrow slab channels, curb tops, utility pads, and step treads where wide-profile trowels bind or catch.
Focused Physical Leverage: Reduced blade width concentrates hand pressure onto the slab, enabling deeper compaction and a tight, glass-like hard-trowel finish.
Hardened High Carbon Steel: The blade is crafted from premium-grade spring steel, hardened and tempered to deliver true flatwork rigidity alongside predictable, responsive flex under pressure.
Factory-Beveled Work Edges: Precision-beveled blade margins prevent aggregate from popping or catching under the trowel face, eliminating surface gouges and line marks.
Xtralite® Alloy Mounting: Features Marshalltown’s high-strength aluminum alloy mounting that holds the 14-inch blade perfectly flat without cluttering your bags with extra weight.
Ergonomic DuraSoft® Grip: Equipped with a curved, shock-absorbing DuraSoft handle that prevents hand slippage and reduces wrist fatigue during long, demanding pours.
Curb, Gutter & Step Work: The premier hand trowel size for finishing poured-in-place concrete steps, curb tops, and narrow gutter pans.
Restricted Form Channels: Easily reaches into narrow expansion joint bays, utility trench covers, and tight architectural borders.
High-Pressure Concrete Burnishing: Preferred by concrete craftsmen for final hard-burnish passes where focused downward force is required to seal surface pores.
