Handheld Push-Pull Hooks

Tug and guide loads into position from a distance. These hooks give you extra reach into tight spots. They’re lightweight enough to use overhead, yet durable enough to withstand drops and bumps.

J-Hook—J-hooks are made of fiberglass, so they won’t conduct electricity. They’re shaped to push against flat surfaces and hook around square or round parts of your equipment. The handle is textured for slip resistance.

T-Hook—T-hooks have a rubber-coated nylon end, so they won’t scratch delicate surfaces. The handle telescopes for extra reach and locks with a twist. The tip has a standard Acme thread, so you can remove the end and attach a broom or magnet instead.
