Product Description
Milwaukee Clay Spade
Model Number: 48-62-2095
The Milwaukee 48-62-2095 is a Clay Spade — a wide, flat spade chisel attachment for Milwaukee and compatible demolition hammers and rotary hammers in hammer-only mode, engineered for digging, breaking, and loosening hard clay, compacted soil, hardpan, and dense earth in utility installation, landscaping, excavation, and construction applications where manual digging tools are insufficient to break through the material efficiently. The clay spade profile presents a broad, flat blade with a shovel-like geometry specifically designed to cut through and break apart cohesive clay soils and compacted earth — the wide blade width maximizes the soil contact area per hammer stroke for efficient material loosening and removal, while the spade edge geometry cuts into clay's cohesive structure more effectively than the narrow point or flat chisel profiles that are optimized for concrete work rather than soil penetration.
Drop-forged from high-grade steel with heat-treated working areas, the clay spade is engineered to withstand the sustained repetitive hammering required for productive clay and hard soil work without deforming at the working edge or fracturing the blade body under the combined impact and lateral soil resistance forces during digging operations. The clay spade is used extensively by electricians, plumbers, HVAC installers, telecommunications contractors, and landscaping professionals for breaking through hard clay layers during trench digging for underground utility installation, for loosening compacted backfill, and for the precision digging work around existing utilities and structures where machinery excavation cannot be used safely. The hammer shank provides the energy delivery of a professional demolition hammer to the digging task, dramatically reducing the labor and time required for hard clay excavation compared to manual hand digging tools.
Milwaukee offers a complete lineup of demolition hammer ground engagement tools including pointed bull points for hard rock and reinforced concrete breaking, floor scrapers for adhesive and coating removal, and tamper plates for fill compaction — in addition to the clay spade for soft ground and clay applications.
