Libman Large Precision Angle Broom with Dustpan

A: it says it's steel in the details

A: Metal. Plastic screw on part

A: Yes.

A: Its best to store it inside. Storing this outside can lead to rust.

A: This is a one-piece handle. We do sell brooms that come in segments, but those are typically sold through Home Depot and amazon.

A: You can clean rugs with a shorter pile with this broom. If the rug has a taller pile, the bristles might snag/tangle in the fibers.

A: The edge is currently made of plastic.

A: With the way the bristles are flagged at the ends, this does have dust bunnies that get trapped in the fibers. However, we have a lime green dust comb that comes with the majority of our brooms (or can be requested to be sent for free by calling 877-818-33802 or emailing us at info@libman.com). It clips onto the broom pole when not in use, and then you can quickly comb out the dust bunnies without having to pull them out by hand.

A: The bristles are flagged at the ends, which basically means each bristle is split into several bristles. This process allows for the upper bristles to remain stiff and strong for long life, whereas the portion that touches the floor/surface is able to capture smaller particles of dirt and dust. Our angle brooms are rated safe for indoor and outdoor use, so this would be a great tool to use on your patio. Just remember to store this in a dry place after use.

A: All of our mops and brooms have a hanger tip on the end for easy storage.

A: The broom is 53.5" in total length.
