<strong>Tethered</strong> tools <strong>for</strong> working <strong>at</strong> height.<br />

Simple, flexible solutions <strong>for</strong> tethering and securing tools <strong>for</strong> contractors<br />

and oper<strong>at</strong>ors who work <strong>at</strong> height. Work safely by tethering tools preventing<br />

the risk of falling objects striking and injuring a person below or damaging<br />

valuable machinery.<br />
