    Tongs

    Also known as die-lifting tongs, these tongs can be used to lift tall objects and reach into machinery. As you lift these tongs, their scissor-action grip increases. They’re yellow for high visibility in busy areas.
    Warning: Never use to lift items over people.
    Powder-Coated Steel—Powder-coated steel tongs resist corrosion in wet environments.

    Safely move gas cylinders and other heavy, hard-to-grasp objects. These grabbers have a scissor-like design that firmly grips the sides of a cylinder when you pull up on the handles. You can lift them on your own or share the load with another person. Padding on the handles makes them comfortable and easy to hold.

    Attach these tongs to a crane, hoist, or other lifting device to move heavy pipes. When you pull on the top ring, the jaws tighten firmly around your pipe. Arms on each side, called outriggers, keep the pipe from seesawing as you move it. These tongs have a yellow powder coating that helps prevent corrosion and makes them easy to spot.
    Warning: Never use to lift items over people.
