HANDLE-TECH SPECS AND CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL INFORMATION

Handle-Tech is a tool that makes picking up and carrying industrial pipes and hoses easier and safer. Use Handle-Tech to help reduce injuries, stay clean and speed up your work.

All our standard Handle-Tech handles are composed of Long Glass Nylon which enhances the thermal properties compared to commonly used materials such as aluminum; in addition, this lightweight material is stronger and more wear-resistant. From temperatures of -40C to +50C, each handle is designed to battle the most hostile environments. The Handle-Tech Handle has a safe lifting capacity of 400 lbs with a breaking point at 1125 lbs. PLEASE NOTE that this device was designed for hand-use only and should only be used as designed. The following specifications apply to all Handle-Tech handles:
