T&T Tools 72″ Insulated Soil Probe with 3/8″ Hex Rod – MPA72-X

Named as the best soil probes available today, the Mighty Probe models of T&T Tools offer superior quality both in terms of functionality and protective features. These models come in standard round and hex rod types, each with its own advantageous characteristics. For applications where the hex type would be more useful, the T&T Tools 72″ Insulated Soil Probe with 3/8″ Hex Rod MPA72-X is one of the best choices available.

The MPA72-X and all the other Mighty Probe models are best known for their protective properties. These probes feature an isolator securely molded and connected to the device handle. Having been tested in accordance with the F711-89 testing procedures of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), the Mighty Probe models guarantee protection from up to 50,000 volts of electricity, regardless of whether the ground being probed is dry, loamy, or water-soaked. Even if scratched or scored, the Mighty Probe models retain their protective feature against electric shock. Users, however, must still wear protective equipment when using this device.

The MPA72-X soil probe features a 3/8-inch hex rod, which is about 20 percent stiffer than a standard rod. Its shaft and tip are made with alloy steel, which resists bending and scoring even with regular and repetitive use. Also, its tip is designed to have tapered edges, which makes it easier to penetrate the soil and to withdraw the probe from the ground afterward. As such, this device can be beneficial even for hard and very dry ground.

Another convenient feature of the MPA72-X is its slightly oversized tip. Intentionally made to be larger in size than the shaft, the tip of the MPA72-X probe is able to make a clearance hole big enough for the shaft to easily pass through. The tip is also heat-treated to ensure a long service life.

In the event that certain parts of the MPA72-X need replacement, T&T Tools offers replacement parts (sold separately) that can be easily installed on the device. In fact, the shift, tip, and handle of the MPA72-X are threaded, allowing for easier detachment and replacement. The device may also be used with a coupler and an extension rod (sold separately) in case a longer rod is needed for the users job.

For better control, T&T Tools designed the MPA72-X probe with a 1-inch by 11-inch solid steel handle. It gives ample space for users to have a good grip on the device, even when theyre wearing protective gloves.

With all these features, it is unquestionable why the T&T Tools 72″ Insulated Soil Probe with 3/8″ Hex Rod MPA72-X is one of the best probes that users can get. This model and all the other Mighty Probe models are available here on Engineer Warehouse.
