Bucket Trowel 7″

Product Description

Bring speed, convenience, and accuracy to your mortaring tasks with the Bucket Trowel 7″ — a go-to tool for masons, tilers, and general tradespeople. This trowel is specifically engineered to scoop mortar, adhesive, or grout straight from the bucket, reducing waste and mess while keeping your workflow smooth.

The blade — typically about 7 inches (≈ 180 mm) — is often made of hardened carbon steel or stainless steel, polished and coated to resist rust and build-up. This durable construction ensures it holds up under jobsite rigour. Many bucket trowels have a square or slightly tapered profile to allow easy scraping, scooping, and spreading from corners or flat surfaces. The wide blade facilitates fast uptake from deep buckets or tubs. For example, one bucket trowel design feature is its utility to “remove adhesive from bucket, remove excessive adhesive from anywhere, clean trowels, levels between mixes … lift tiles to apply more adhesive”.

The handle is ergonomically designed — often with soft, non-slip grip or wood/thermoplastic grip options — giving you control, comfort, and reduced fatigue. The trowel is balanced to allow you to maneuver easily, even when loaded with material. Some models incorporate finger guards or curved grips to protect your hand while working deep in buckets. For instance, an OX bucket trowel is described as having an “OX Grip handle with finger protection”.

A bucket trowel is invaluable for tasks like mixing mortar, transferring adhesive to working trowels, leveling small amounts in a bucket for calibration, pushing mortar into gaps, or cleaning off excess from tools. It’s a “bridge” tool between your mixing and application phases, improving speed and cleanliness on site.
