The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that being struck by a falling object is the third major cause of workplace fatalities and that many of these accidents are completely preventable. A one-pound tool falling from 500 feet strikes the ground traveling at about 140 mph. According to OSHA standards, workers are currently required to be anchored when they are four feet or higher above the ground.
Knipex Tethered Tools provide effective protection against accidents caused by falling tools. These tools can be secured to be prevented from falling down during use with cherry pickers, scaffolding, ladders, and also by industrial climbers with wire ropes and high altitude rescue workers. The tether attachment mount point is welded securely to the multi-component comfort grip handle and the flat mounting point does not get in the way during normal work on the ground.
Knipex Tools was started in 1882 by Carl Gustav Putsch who set up a shop in the family home specializing in making pliers. To this day, Knipex still specializes in making high quality pliers and in addition to that, they have created some really cool and innovative pliers designs. Knipex specialty pliers include the pliers wrench, the Alligator and Cobra pliers and the Cobolt bolt cutters – each with their own specialties and features that set them apart from common brands. Knipex’s workmanship is also among the best, their tools are made of some of the strongest tool steel available and it’s a difference you can feel. Knipex Tools help you get a grip on whatever job you need to do, so if you need pliers or gripping tools, Knipex is it.
