Master tight corners, detailed patch work, and confined form margins with maximum control. The Marshalltown MXS56D Narrow Finishing Trowel packs professional-grade leveling power into a highly agile, compact 12-inch profile.
When working on intricate patch repairs, narrow window sills, stair steps, or tight structural transitions, standard 16-inch or 24-inch flatwork trowels are often too cumbersome to maneuver effectively. The MXS56D solves this by combining a streamlined 12-inch length with a narrow 3-inch blade width. This reduced footprint allows you to direct precise, high-pressure force exactly where it's needed—smoothing out repair mortars, feathering patching compounds, and burnishing small concrete slabs to a flawless finish. Crafted from premium hardened and tempered spring steel, the blade maintains true flatness while offering responsive flex under pressure.
Compact 12-Inch Blueprint: Shortened blade length allows effortless navigation through cramped form corners, tight structural offsets, and confined utility spaces.
Narrow 3-Inch Width: Slim profile prevents edge binding along narrow borders, step risers, and window frames while concentrating hand pressure for deep surface consolidation.
Hardened High Carbon Spring Steel: Meticulously tempered to provide long-lasting edge retention, smooth feedback, and dependable wear resistance against abrasive concrete mixes.
Xtralite® Alloy Backbone: Machine-fitted with Marshalltown's high-tensile aluminum mounting to hold the blade perfectly rigid without adding tiring weight to your tool belt.
Ergonomic DuraSoft® Grip: Equipped with a shock-absorbing, curved DuraSoft handle that isolates your hand from impact fatigue and ensures a secure grip in any weather.
Detail Patch & Repair Work: The ultimate finishing trowel for feathering dry-pack mortars, patching spalls, and cleaning up concrete blemishes.
Stair Treads & Landings: Perfect dimensions for floating and finishing narrow concrete steps and restrictive architectural corners.
Form Edges & Transitions: Easily reaches into tight gaps along formwork and expansion joints where oversized trowels cannot fit.
