Kraft Tool CF317PF 7-1/2 Inch Bronze Concrete Hand Groover Deep Bit 1-1/2 Depth 1/4 Radius Heavy Duty Finisher ProForm Grip

Establish Superior Control Joints with Heavy-Duty Bronze Precision

Create perfectly defined, deep control joints in your concrete flatwork with the Kraft Tool CF317PF Bronze Deep Bit Groover. This professional-grade tool is cast from 100% durable bronze, offering a distinct advantage over steel competitors. The naturally heavier weight of bronze allows the tool to sit firmly in the concrete, cutting through aggregate with minimal downward pressure from the user. Designed for projects requiring substantial stress relief, this groover features a 1-1/2 inch deep bit, making it the ideal choice for thicker slabs and heavy-load pavements. The bit is precision-engineered to create a 1/2-inch wide groove with a smooth 1/4-inch radius, ensuring edges that resist chipping and spalling over time.

Efficiency and comfort are built into every inch of this 7-1/2 inch long tool. The blade is hand-polished to a mirror finish, allowing it to glide effortlessly across the surface without dragging or snagging. Its "closed bit" design prevents concrete buildup inside the tool, ensuring a continuous, clean cut. To keep you working comfortably all day, the groover is fitted with Kraft’s signature ProForm® soft grip handle. This high-visibility orange handle features textured ribbing that wicks away moisture and provides a secure, non-slip grip, significantly reducing hand fatigue during extended finishing sessions on hard materials like pervious concrete.

Specifications

Pro-Tip: The standard industry rule for control joints is that the depth should be at least 1/4 of the total slab thickness. With a 1-1/2 inch bit depth, this tool is specifically engineered for slabs that are 6 inches thick. Using a shallow bit on a thick slab can result in uncontrolled random cracking, so always match your tool to the pour specifications.
