    Extension Lock

    Extend keys from the holder when needed and a cable automatically retracts them when you're done. Key end swivels 360°.
    Retractable Cable with Ball Socket Lock—Holders with a ball socket lock have a slit that allows the cable to be pulled out on the side or directly up, relieving stress on the cable. When the cable is fully retracted, the ball locks in place to prevent extension.
    Retractable Cable with Extension Lock—Holder with extension lock has a locking latch to keep the cable extended.

    Suspend your tool for a weightless feel and movement with minimal effort. Tool balancers are good for minimizing fatigue in applications that require continuous tool use. Choose a load capacity that is sufficient for the total load you'll place on the tool balancer. This includes the tool plus any fittings, hose, or power cords.

    Retractable Tool Lanyards

    Keep tools within reach when you need them and out of the way when you don’t—these lanyards retract to prevent snags and tangles. They meet ANSI/ISEA 121, which certifies that their design keeps your tool from falling and harming people and equipment below when you’re working at height. An extension lock on these lanyards keeps it retracted until you’re ready to use it. To properly tether your tool, you’ll need an attachment point on your tool and an anchor point for your lanyard

    Lanyards for hand tools are the standard option—they can be used on most tools in your toolbox.
    Coil Lanyard—Coil lanyards stretch to their full length and then return to their retracted length when you let go to prevent snags and tangles.
    Wire Rope—Wire rope lanyards are more abrasion resistant than webbing lanyards. A rubber coating protects the stainless steel wire rope from corrosion.
