An adapter for connecting a tool head to a fiberglass tool handle or shaft. The adapter includes a cap having greater compressive strength than the handle. The cap fits over the end of the handle to prevent damage during assembly, use or storage of the tool. A pair of adapter sections fit around the cap and the adjacent end of the handle. The adapter sections have recesses which receive the ends of the cap. A pair of pins carried by the adapter sections extend into openings in the handle. The cap also acts as a guide to provide proper alignment of the adapter sections and tool head with respect to the handle.
