A Slate Ripper is used for removing broken slate and pulling nails from composition shingles/wood shakes on reroofing. The ripper, has a thin blade with a hooked end which is slipped underneath the broken slate, and hooked around the nails. Pound the handle to pull the old nails out and remove the broken slate. A new slate is held in place by using a slate hook. Blade Length: 25-1/2"

A one piece forging provides years of use and is superior to a welded construction ripper.
-
A spring tempered, thin blade makes sliding under slate for repairs easy without breaking adjoining slates.
-
The re-enforced handle will withstand a beating over its lifetime.
-
The tool is equally useful on tile shingles and cedar shake.
