The Marshalltown 4681DFDL DuraFlex Finishing Trowel is a 13 x 5 inch finishing trowel with the company’s DuraFlex spring-steel blade, a softer flex than the standard MXS-series carbon steel that drywall and plaster crews specifically request for skim coats and final passes. The DuraFlex blade follows hawk pressure and bends with the pass instead of digging in at the corners, leaving a smoother surface on a single pull.
Use it for drywall mud skim coats, the final finish pass on level-5 finishes, veneer plaster work, lime-and-clay traditional plaster, decorative gypsum work, and any wall-finish job where blade flex matters more than rigid pressure. The 9-3/4 inch mounting plate distributes hand pressure evenly across the longer blade.
Marshalltown has been forging masonry tools in Marshalltown, Iowa since 1890 and remains the trusted American brand on commercial concrete and brick crews coast-to-coast. The 4681DFDL carries Marshalltown’s lifetime warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
