Snap-On Tools Tools@Height system

The Tools@Height system from Snap-On Tools is designed to provide safe working conditions when working with tools at heights.

From small screwdrivers to sledgehammers, covering both high- and low-level use, the Tools@Height range includes Snap-on Tools that have been specifically designed to accept lanyards that can be attached either to the operator or to a suitable site tether point. The range prevents tools being lost or dropped, reducing the risk of potential injury to people or equipment below.

The concept was originally developed by Snap-on Tools to prevent tools being dropped by oil workers into the North Sea. The system is suitable for industries including oil and gas, mining, construction, defence and aviation.

The electrical range of Tools@Height products are Power-Safe, meaning they are isolated from electronic currents, and also come with several improved features, such as Lock-On safety sockets and Snap-Coil weldless fittings. While a normal socket could easily be detached from a ratchet, Lock-On sockets are unable to accidently release and the stainless steel Snap-Coil tool links have no welds to inspect or break.

Other features include: Power-Safe insulated tools with a newly designed lanyard attachment that is fully integrated with the tools handle; integrated hammerheads; lockable lanyard snap-hooks; lanyards tested and certified; bags, pouches and tool keepers; standard and custom kit building; in-house design and engineering; prototypes and special tools; and ISO 9001 quality management.

The expanding Tools@Height range includes: water pump pliers, linesman pliers, diagonal cutters, cable cutters, adjustable pliers, needle nose pliers, wire stripping pliers, adjustable wrench and core croppers.

The range is fitted by technicians on site and includes training and technical support.
