Wheelbarrows

The basic design of the wheelbarrow has changed remarkably little over hundreds of years. Modern materials and manufacturing have refined it, but the original idea remains just as useful today.

The wheelbarrows in our collection are made in Canada by TUFX, a manufacturer that has spent decades refining this familiar design. Strong frames, quality wheels and thoughtful construction help these tools stand up to years of regular use.

Choosing which one is for you comes down to the materials you'll be moving, the environment you'll be working in and the features that matter most to you.

Why choose a poly wheelbarrow?

Poly trays won't rust, are quieter to use than steel and are easy to rinse clean after moving soil, mulch or compost. They're also lighter than steel, making the wheelbarrow easier to maneuver when empty.

What's the difference between TUFX TK100 and PX120?

Both wheelbarrows feature durable poly trays and are made in Canada, but each takes a different approach. The TK100 uses a pneumatic wheel that rolls smoothly over uneven ground and helps absorb bumps while transporting loads. The PX120 replaces the traditional pneumatic wheel with a flat-free tire that eliminates punctures and never needs inflation. It also features a reinforced steel frame with cross bracing for added rigidity when moving heavier loads.

How long should a quality wheelbarrow last?

A well-made wheelbarrow can provide many years of reliable service. Keeping the tire properly inflated, storing it under cover when possible and tightening hardware as needed will help extend its working life.

How do I care for my wheelbarrow?

Wheelbarrows have been part of everyday work for centuries, and many remain in service for decades with only basic care. Rinse away mud and concrete after use, keep the tire properly inflated, check that hardware remains tight, and store the wheelbarrow under cover whenever possible. A few minutes of maintenance now and then can add years to its working life.

About TUFX

TUFX has been manufacturing wheelbarrows and outdoor equipment in Canada for decades. The company's approach reflects the same qualities found in the products themselves: practical design, quality materials and manufacturing that's refined through experience rather than constant reinvention.

The wheelbarrows in our collection continue that tradition. Modern materials have improved durability and reduced maintenance, but the underlying design remains largely unchanged because it continues to solve the same problem remarkably well. Like many well-made tools, they're built to be used, maintained and relied upon for years to come.
