BucketBarrow URBAN88 Feature	Compared to other products
Tyres
Heavy duty 4 PLY with tough grip aggressive tread.	UK Barrows commonly have 1 ply with no tread
90mm wide with central bump profile to assist steering.
Inner Tube
2mm thick heavy duty rubber with bent steel valve for easy inflating and minimise air bleed.	UK barrows tend to have very thin inner tubes that bleed air through the thin rubber they also have poor quality straight plastic valves that also bleed and also awkward to inflate.
Wheel Rim
1.6mm thick fully welded steel profile with 25mm steel axle and a rolled rim to make tyre removal easier.	UK Barrows commonly have cheaper plastic rims that crack.
Wheel Bearing
Fully sealed 25mm roller bearing.	UK Barrows mostly have plastic bushes not proper wheel bearing. Plastic bushes wear out very quickly making the wheel unsafe.
Front Strap
4mm thick double bolted to allow the wheelbarrow to stand upright safely against a shed.	UK Barrows tend to have rounded fronts which make the unsafe to stand upright. Australian barrows are only single bolted
Tubular Streel Front Braces
20mm steel tube makes the front of the wheelbarrow very strong and act as an easy grip handle to lift and move the wheelbarrow.	UK Barrows tend not to have front braces and the barrows that do have them have flat pressed steel that is only 2mm thick. They tend to bend and deform very easily as they are not attached to the rim but half way up the front of the tray which is not good as this stresses the tray at this point and there is a bolt through the tray which gets damaged through use.
Sub Frame
Fully welded cross braced 5mm steel frame approximately 100-150mm wider contact point with the floor making it much more stable.	UK Barrows tend to have integral tubular frames which do perform well in terms of strength although the tube does tend to wear out quickly with dragging on rough ground. When measuring the foot print or contact points with the floor of most UK Barrows the distance between the rear frame and the distance between axle and rear frame is much smaller making the barrow very unstable when loaded. UK Barrows tend to have bolted cross bracing which then tend to loosen over time.
The contact point between the axle and the rear contact points is approximately 150-200mm longer. This allows the user to place the first full heavy bucket at the rear corner of the tray and the barrow does not tip over.
The 5mm steel section does not wear out when dragged on rough ground.
Integrated Under Tray Shock Board
15-20mm thick box section moulding under the tray to resist impact of heavy sharp materials.	UK Barrows do not have a shock board at all or minimal under tray moulding to help protect the tray from material  impact.
Tray
At 525mm wide it is the narrowest in the world but also maintains 90L of volume making it easy to store in a shed or van/truck.	UK Barrows tend to be 3mm thick uniform wall thickness. Our flat bottom tray and vertical side walls make emptying with a shovel much easier than most UK Barrows that have very angle sides. The tray rims in the UK have minimal ribbing or extra strengthening. UK Barrows tend to have mounting hardware that goes through the tray in 4 to 6 places. The hardware tends to loosen and rust over a short period of time which tends to make the barrow unsafe or inoperable. UK Barrow Trays are commonly moulded with regrind plastic material up to 40%. This material is not recycled from other products it is just material that has gone through the moulding machines 2-3 times already. When tooling shops change tooling or colour they have to run a LOT of plastic through the machines to set them up for the next process this waste plastic often gets ground down and put into production runs. We make sure this does not happen with our BucketBarrow products and you can tell with our bright greens and oranges colours that there is no regrind. Pastel non bright colours and chalky blacks are a giveaway sign that there is regrind in the material. Some customers ask if we use recycled plastic material in our products. We explain that recycled material is not strong enough to make a quality wheelbarrow tray or bucket that is top quality and built to last. We use virgin heavy duty PP material to make sure our trays are very strong as we want  our trays and buckets if used correctly to last a many years. It’s a balance and we have invested in quality products that last.
The narrow design makes it incredibly useful to access tight confined spaces.
Wall thickness of 5-6mm thick, High density virgin Polypropylene with proprietary impact modifiers to resist cold temperatures and impact.
Rim profile is 8-10mm thickness with strengthening ribbing. The tray is water proof with no bolt heads inside the tray.
The tray is mounted to the frame via 6 x external 8mm thick double tabbed M6 Nyloc Zinc coated bolts and 2 x M8 Nyloc Zinc coated bolts mounted to 8mm thick front tabs.
The tray is mounted in a flat bottom orientation that has a lower centre of gravity the standard making the barrow much more stable when pushed under load.
Hand Grips
Ergonomically designed for a narrower hand with top textured grip area and rear bump to assist reversing the wheelbarrow when loaded.	UK Barrows commonly have cheap low quality grips that crack.
The grips are bolted onto the steel frame and to make sure they never slip off we also riveted the grips onto the steel frame.
The Flexible PVC material is incredibly strong and impact resistant.
Frame
25mm x 50mm boxes section steel frame powder coated 3 times.	UK barrows commonly have only 1 or 2 coats of paint.
