Gear Keeper Heavy-Tool Retractable Tether Minimizes Dangling Tool Entanglement

  • Posted on

Gear Keeper’s new RT3-5605 heavy-tool retractable tether’s ultra-low profile keeps tools close to the body when retracted, while still allowing effort-free accessibility when extended for use.

When the tool is retracted, lanyard exposure is minimized to avoid snagging, especially when the tool is also placed in a tool bag/pouch. The heavy-tool tether has a generous reach that extends 55 inches, and comes complete with a long-lasting and strong, impact-absorbing Spectra/Nylon … Read more
