I noticed this while I was cleaning at work. There are ridges on both sides of the counter dust pan we use. Me and a co-worker weren't sure if it was there for no reason, but I noticed it on other dust pans.Why are there ridges on the sides of a dust pan?
The ridges on a dust pan are put there to make the pan stronger, more ridged, less flexible, so it doesn't break so easily.Why are there ridges on the sides of a dust pan?
It's to use the broom on after you've swept... it will knock off any particles or hairs or whatever stuck to the broom...

ReplyDeleteThey are for running the brush handle up and down to cause vibration, helping to shack off the fine dust from the dustpan.
Hope you're still alive, it has been 8 years since you asked this.
