Elevate Efficiency with Short-Handle Tools

Short-handle tools are the unsung heroes of municipal work, plumbing, and utility maintenance. They provide ease of transport and a safer, more efficient approach to tackling crucial tasks. In this blog post, we're proud to present our range of top-tier short-handle tools that are poised and ready to assist you in your projects.

Manhole Hooks

Dating back to ancient Rome, manhole covers have long been an integral part of urban infrastructure. Correspondingly, the advent of short-handle tools to lift these hefty stone grates followed closely. Our heavy-duty manhole lifters and hooks excel at seamlessly removing and replacing pedestrian and vehicle manholes, granting access to underground sewer systems, pipes, and critical infrastructure. Designed to fit snugly under pry points on manholes, these hooks enable you to effortlessly lift covers from their openings, particularly in cases where they may be stubborn or stuck. By reducing lifting effort, manhole hooks help prevent muscle strain and injuries, all while being more compact and portable compared to their magnetic counterparts.

Crafted from high-carbon heat-treated steel, these robust manhole hooks are available in three distinct hook lengths, with handles that align with your preferences and hand size. The increased carbon content endows them with superior strength, hardness, and wear resistance. Additionally, high-carbon steel boasts better corrosion resistance than its low-carbon counterparts. The heat treatment further fortifies these hooks with rust-resistant properties.

Sewer Probing Rod

Probing rods are indispensable for locating and determining the depths of subterranean pipes, septic tanks, and utility lines, all without causing undue disruption to the area. Our selection includes rods with extensions of 2.5 feet, 4 feet, and 6 feet, ensuring that no pipe remains hidden beneath the ground.

Featuring a spring-steel shaft, a comfortable grip T-handle for precise control, and a hardened stainless steel tip for resilience against rust and wear, this probing rod boasts unmatched durability. The ballpoint design ensures it won't puncture softer pipes, and we even offer a convenient tip replacement package for extended tool life.

Hydrant Wrench

In the realm of plumbing, spanner wrenches reign supreme for fixing leaky pipes and faucets. These compact and lightweight tools outperform their larger counterparts in confined or hard-to-reach spaces, delivering potent turning force with finesse.

Hydrant wrenches specialize in effortlessly removing fire hydrant caps and operating the hydrant valve. Our combination hydrant and spanner wrenches accommodate both pentagon and square nuts, boasting a cast-steel body and a robust handle for unwavering strength and longevity.

Sewer Manhole Sand Trap

A steadfast solution for preventing sand-related blockages, sand traps have been a staple in manhole maintenance for years. By capturing sand before it progresses downstream or reaches the treatment facility, you can swiftly remove debris rather than allowing it to impede the sewer flow.

Our heavy-duty sheet metal sewer manhole sand traps, available in sizes ranging from 6 inches to 18 inches, seamlessly integrate with light vacuums or long-handled scoops, facilitating effortless material extraction at the manhole.
