Professional hive tool

Large Professional Stainless Steel Hive Tool

Large stainless steel hive tool with wooden handle is an essential piece of equipment for everyday work at the hives. This sturdy and practical beekeeping tool from SWISS BIENE is designed to speed up and improve precision during hive inspections. It is equally suitable for beginner beekeepers as well as for professionals with a larger number of hives.

Solid Support When Working with Colonies

When working inside the hive, you need a tool that can handle daily use while allowing you to work gently. The hive tool is used to separate glued hive parts, loosen frames sealed with propolis, and scrape off wax and propolis residue. The 26 cm length provides excellent leverage, so you can easily and effortlessly pry apart even firmly propolized supers. This reduces the risk of damaging the wood while minimizing vibrations that could unnecessarily disturb the bees.

Stainless Steel and Wood for Hygiene and Comfort

The hive tool is made from high-quality stainless steel alloy, which resists corrosion and mechanical wear. The smooth surface is also easy to clean, can be flame-sterilized and disinfected, which helps maintain necessary hygiene at the apiary and reduces the risk of disease transmission between hives. The solid wooden handle ensures a secure grip and comfortable tool control even when wearing thick beekeeping gloves. In cooler weather, the wood doesn't feel cold in your hand, making work more pleasant even during longer inspections.
