Hand Tools

Squids 3703 Elastic Loop Tool Tails with D-Rings provide a complete tool-lanyard retrofit solution for a wide variety of smaller, eyelet-equipped hand tools. Heavy-duty nylon webbing is double-stitched with high-tensile-strength nylon thread to ensure reliable performance in even the harshest work environments. A corrosion-resistant, stainless-steel D-ring on one end accommodates tool-lanyard connections. On the other end, a stretchable, elastic-nylon loop with barrel lock simplifies attaching to captive-hole eyelet-equipped hand tools as well as various other tools that feature a secure lanyard-attachment point. To accommodate tools without captive-hole eyelets or secure attachment points, pair these tails with Squids 3775 Self-Adhering Tool Traps (traps sold-separately). These tool-lanyard tails are built to withstand defined weight limits and can easily be used by any worker to help avoid accidentally dropping objects that could cause extensive property damage and serious, potentially deadly injuries. When used properly, these tails feature a maximum safe working capacity of 15 lb with a 2:1 safety factor. Standard Length. Fastener Style: D-Ring; Elastic Loop; Lanyard Color(s): Lime; Length: 15"; Safety Breakaway Connector: No.

The Squids 3714 Elastic Tool Tail Lanyard features a swiveling self-locking captive-eye aluminum carabiner on one end and a low-profile cinch loop on the other to tether tools up to 10 lbs and prevent dropped or falling objects from occurring on the job. Its 15" length helps reduce fall distance in the event of a drop and also keeps tools statically tethered to belts, pouches, bags and other anchoring or storage locations. This lanyard is constructed with flexible elastic webbing to reduce snag hazards and tangles. The low-profile cinch loop end easily fits into small captive holes in tools that can otherwise be challenging to tether. With a captive eye design, the self-locking carabiner securely tethers tools while better predicting load direction and preventing the lanyard from sliding into the carabiner gate. The carabiner’s swiveling design prevents binding and tangling when being used with rotating tools like screwdrivers. For best use, either tape the loop end onto a hand tool with Squids 3755 Self-Adhering Tape Trap or use the cinch loop or carabiner end to tether tools with captive holes. To complete the tethering system, attach the opposite end to a Squids Wristband Anchor or other anchoring location for convenient tethering. When working at heights, it’s essential to tether your tools as part of your fall protection plan. This tool lanyard is built to withstand defined weight limits and can easily be used by any worker to help avoid accidentally dropping objects that could cause damage, injuries or possibly death. Ideal for those who need to tether tools in industries like construction, telecommunications, oil and gas, power generation, utilities, wind energy, manufacturing or other jobs at heights. Fastener Style: Carabiner; Lanyard Color(s): Black; Length: 15"; Safety Breakaway Connector: No.
