MPN: 25549

Barcode: 5028734255492

Size: 900mm (36")

Weight: 1.85kg

Overview:

The Blue Spot Tools 900mm Straight Pound Through Pry Bar is built from heat-treated alloy steel. It features a 26mm wide straight head for controlled prying tasks. Heat treatment gives the material resistance against bending and deformation under heavy load.

The 16mm satin-finished shaft runs the full length of the handle. This design lets you strike the protruding shaft end with a hammer. You can then drive the bar into seized or tight gaps where hand pressure alone falls short.

A soft grip handle sits over the shaft for comfort during use. This bar carries the Blue Spot Tools manufacturer's lifetime guarantee.

Key Features and Benefits

• Extra Leverage: At 900mm, the bar generates more force than shorter alternatives, making stubborn fixings easier to shift.
• Straight Head Design: Slides flat and cleanly under boards, tiles, and trim without catching adjacent surfaces.
• Wide Prying Head: The 26mm head spreads force across a broader contact area, reducing the risk of material damage.
• Pound-Through Design: Strike the protruding shaft end with a hammer to drive the bar into seized or tight gaps.
• Soft Grip Handle: Reduces hand fatigue during repeated or prolonged prying tasks.
• Heat-Treated Construction: The alloy steel resists bending and deformation when force is applied under load.
• Satin Finished Shaft: Reduces friction as the bar slides into narrow or tight gaps.

Typical Applications

• Lifting and separating timber boards during demolition
• Removing floor tiles, paving slabs, and flagstones
• Prying apart door frames and structural panels
• Lifting floorboards during renovation work
• Removing skirting boards and architraves
• Separating rusted or seized metal components
• Repositioning heavy materials on construction sites

How to Use

• Assess the Job: Identify where to insert the head and check for obstacles around the work area.

• Insert the Head: Slide the 26mm straight head into the gap or under the material.

• Drive it In: Strike the protruding shaft end firmly with a hammer to seat the bar in tight or seized gaps.

• Apply Leverage: Push or pull the handle steadily to lift or separate the material.

• Work Progressively: Move the bar along the joint in stages rather than forcing a single point.

• Maintain Posture: Bend at the knees and keep your back straight when levering heavy materials.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is a pound through pry bar?
  A pound through pry bar has a shaft that runs the full length of the handle. This lets you strike the protruding end with a hammer to drive the bar into gaps where manual pressure alone is not enough.

• What is the difference between a pry bar and a crowbar?
  A crowbar is typically longer and heavier, with a curved end suited to brute demolition force. A pry bar is generally flatter and thinner, designed for more controlled leverage - such as removing trim or lifting boards without causing unnecessary damage.

• What length pry bar should I use?
  The heavier or more fixed the object, the longer the bar you need. Shorter bars under 500mm suit light tasks and tight spaces. Bars of 600mm and above provide more mechanical advantage for heavier prying work.

• Can a pry bar bend or break under load?
  A heat-treated bar will typically bend gradually if overloaded, acting as a warning before failure. Poor-quality bars can snap suddenly and without warning. Always inspect the bar for damage before each use and avoid applying excessive force.

• How do I maintain a pry bar?
  After each use, remove dirt and debris, then apply a non-corrosive oil to protect against rust. File the head edges occasionally to keep them sharp. Do not over-strain the shaft by applying force beyond the tool's rating.
