A handle connector for securing the head of a cleaning tool to its handle is formed as a unitary integral body, preferably of die-cast construction. The connector has two distal ends. At one end, there is an opening for receiving a handle. The other end of the connector extends outwardly and is configured to mate with the head of a broom, mop, or similar manual tool. The body of the connector includes a floating web comprising a substantially flat section and laterally flanking slots. A bolt and wing nut are provided for joining the handle to the connector. As the wing nut is manually tightened against the connector, it applies a compressive force against the flat section of web, which flexes inward in relation to the handle, ultimately contacting the outside surface of the handle. Continued manual tightening ensures for a tight fit between handle and connector and rigidly secures the joint between these tool components.
