A push-type sweeping broom having a handle with a connector end terminating in a reduced-diameter threaded section and a broom block, preferably of molded plastic material, with a raised inclined mound on the upper surface thereof surrounding a blind bore adapted to receive the connector end of the handle. The bore has an upper portion and a lower portion, the lower portion being of reduced diameter in comparison with the upper portion and having threads on its walls. The connector end of the handle is inserted into the bore until the threaded terminal section thereof engages the threaded lower portion of the bore, and the handle is then tightly screwed into the bore, with the upper portion of the bore and the surrounding mound snugly receiving and supporting a portion of the connector end of the handle. The broom block has a plurality of discrete groupings of bristles distributed across its lower surface.
