Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2368644A1] Handle (5) for a hand tool according to the invention, such as a paint roller or a scraper for paint removal, includes: a) a handle wall (7) which gives the handle (5) essentially open cross sections; b) a hard insert (9) which comprises a harder primary material, forms at least part of the handle wall (7) and is at least partly delimited by at least one lateral edge (13); at least one soft edge (15) which covers at least one length of the lateral edge (13) of the hard insert (9) and is essentially softer than the primary material. The soft edge (15) at at least one length of the handle (5) forms the internal thickness of the handle wall (7) for a width (LB) equal to or greater than 2 mm. The handle (5) is comfortable and pleasant to use as a tubular handle, even though it is manufactured with an injection mold without moving platens.
