Bricklaying trowel


A bricklaying trowel is a tool that is used in brickwork for spreading and leveling mortar or cement in preparation for laying bricks or blocks. It has a flat, rectangular blade that is usually made of steel or stainless steel. The blade of the trowel is usually about 4 to 6 inches long and is attached to a handle that is made of wood, plastic, or rubber. The handle is designed to provide a comfortable grip and to help the user maintain control over the trowel. Some trowels also have a notch on one side of the blade that is used for cutting and shaping bricks or blocks. Bricklaying trowels come in a range of sizes and shapes to suit different types of brickwork, and they are an essential tool for anyone involved in bricklaying or masonry.
