KNIPEX Tools Offers New ANSI-Compliant System, Insulated Tools for Tethered Program

KNIPEX Tools offers a new ANSI-compliant tethering system and 1,000V insulated tools for its tethered tools and attachments line. The additions include one ANSI-rated lanyard, two adapter straps and seven 1,000V insulated tools.

The KNIPEX tethering system includes a captive eye to keep the ANSI-compliant lanyard (38 inches in length) secured to the carabiner, as well as a self-locking gate to prevent any unintentional opening. The ANSI-compliant adapter straps (13 inches in length) offer multiple ways to attach to personnel including from a belt, wrist or harness. The tethered tool system provides effective protection against accidents and damage caused by falling tools. The tether attachment is welded onto the multi-grip handles for stable mounting and can hold a maximum tool load of 3.3 pounds. The lanyards are made of gathered fabric that expands to 5 feet when under strain.
