Ettore Master Brass Handle

The Ettore Master Brass Handle 1324 is a classic professional-grade squeegee handle, originally designed in 1936. Made from tempered solid brass, it is known for its durability, weight, and balance. The handle is compatible with Ettore Master Brass Channels and other standard clipped rubber channels. 

Features and specifications

Material: Tempered solid brass for strength and lasting performance. It is the heaviest of Ettore's handle options and will dull over time with normal use.

Attachment mechanism: The channel is secured by a bottom retaining plate that is tightened with two screws. To attach the rubber blade, you must use brass end clips.

Compatibility: While designed for use with Ettore Master Brass Channels, it can also fit other brands' brass channels and many telescopic extension poles. It is not compatible with Ettore's stainless steel channels.

Design: The angled head provides effective cleaning, while the weight and balance offer comfort and reduce the pressure needed on the glass.

Optional grips: Rubber grips are available to provide extra holding power and insulate from the cold during use.

Handle length: 5.25 inches. 

Use and benefits

Professional favorite: Many window cleaners prefer this original handle for its comfortable, weighted feel.

Durability: Made of solid brass, the handle is known to last a lifetime.

Reduced pressure: The handle's heavier construction allows for less pressure on the glass, blade, and the user.

Considerations

End clips: Unlike some newer, clip-less squeegee systems, this handle requires brass end clips to secure the rubber blade.

Temperature: Because it is solid brass, the handle can get cold in colder weather, leading some users to wear gloves.

Weight: Some people find that it is the perfect balance and weight. Some users may prefer a lighter handle, such as those made from aluminum or stainless steel.
