This long handle tear-off spade runs an 11 in. by 7 in. smooth blade on a 60.2 in. ash handle with a built-in fulcrum. The long handle is what you want on open deck area, where the extra reach lets you work standing up and move faster across large square footage without bending into every stroke.
Commercial roofing contractors choose the long-handle smooth spade for membrane and BUR tear-off on large flat roofs where coverage speed matters. The smooth edge slides under the material cleanly without cutting into the deck, and the fulcrum gives you mechanical advantage on the lift stroke so you are not muscling every piece off by hand.
