Description

Putterman’s Lute/Scarifier is a practical clay court maintenance tool designed to help loosen, level, and smooth the playing surface. It is a smart choice for tennis clubs, schools, parks, recreation centers, and clay court facilities that need to keep courts safe, even, and match-ready.

Clay courts need regular grooming to stay playable. Over time, foot traffic, weather, and daily use can create compacted areas, uneven spots, and surface buildup. This tool helps break up compacted material and redistribute clay for a cleaner, more consistent court surface.

The blade features both serrated and flat sides. The serrated side is used to scarify and loosen clay material, while the flat side helps level, smooth, and finish the surface. This dual-purpose design gives grounds crews more control during routine court care.

Made with an aluminum handle and blade, the Lute/Scarifier is built for regular maintenance use while staying manageable for court crews. It is available in 30-inch and 48-inch widths, giving facilities options based on court size, maintenance needs, and crew preference.

For clay tennis courts that need better surface control, smoother play, and consistent daily maintenance, Putterman’s Lute/Scarifier is a reliable tool to keep on hand.
