  • Online Trowel Fitting Guide the Wagman Online Fitting Guide Will Help You Easily See All of the Trowel Blades and Pans That Fit Your Machine
    Online Trowel Fitting Guide The Wagman online fitting guide will help you easily see all of the trowel blades and pans that fit your machine. Choose the make and model of your equipment for a list of what fits your trowel. Visit www.WagmanMetal.com for the interactive fitting guide. 50 Years of Excellence Since 1963 Wagman Metal Products, Inc., has been a leading supplier of power trowel replacement blades and floating pans in the concrete industry. We want to thank our dealers and customers for their continued support, helping to make Wagman Metal Products successful. We are truly a family business that started when my grandfather George F. Wagman, Sr., and my father George F. Wagman, Jr., began production and distribution of a variety of blades to fit many brands of power trowels. Today, Wagman manufactures over 350 different blades to fit the trowels of over 40 companies. In 1980 I started working on our factory floor, performing a variety of jobs in order to learn all the aspects of the manufacturing process. My experience over the years helps ensure that all the products we manufacture meet my tough standards for quality and value. If it's got my name on it, you know you can count on it! Wagman's experience and innovation have helped pioneer the development of heavy-duty blades to cope with the stresses of the new generation of heavy riding trowels. More recently Wagman has perfected the design of the plastic trowel blade, engineered to provide burnish free finishing and unparalleled blade life. Be sure to check out our newest innovation, the Revolution Rotary System.

The Prudential Center was one of seven Regional Home Offices (RHOs) planned by Prudential in the 1950s to decentralize its management. What began as an effort to reinvigorate the company’s bureaucratic makeup evolved into a prominent building program and urban planning phenomenon, promoting the economic prospects of each RHO city and reshaping the geography of the business district.
