Workers working in the oil and gas industries suffer from hand/finger injuries the most. Despite the fact that these workers are well-trained and work in and around a highly heightened workplace, the outcomes still show an increase in the number of hand/finger injuries. Sometimes with adverse effects that may have a lifetime impact. Not to mention, the large amount of money it takes to treat hand/finger injuries. Not everyone can afford the expensive treatment. Hand/finger injuries may seem inevitable. However, it may be possible to try to change its outcomes if we cannot foresee future accidents.  There are some of the best hands and finger safety tools that can come to the rescue in such situations.

Here are the list of top 4 hands & finger safety tools:

1. RAAH Stiffy Push Pull Hands Safety Tool:

The Stiffy Hand Tool is crucial to the implementation of hands-free and hands-off policies. When used effectively and as designed, the Stiffy Hand Safety Tool provides a buffer zone of safety where personnel can guide, maneuver, and spot suspended loads while avoiding pinch and crush points. The Stiffy Hand Safety Tool gives operators a way to mitigate risk by equipping and training workers to not place themselves in danger by working in unsafe proximity to hazardous suspended loads.

The snare tool features improved non-slip grips, an automatic locking mechanism, and super-strong aluminum or stainless steel shaft. The Dual Release uses a spring-loaded noose release to extend the cable through the tool to release the tubular or the slide control which instantly drops the noose from the tool.

3. Finger Savers Hands Safety Tool:

Without the Finger Saver, you are exposing yourself to potential hand or finger injuries. Your hands are your most important day-to-day tool.

4. Hands & Finger Safety Tool – Safe –T–Stik:

Safe-T-Stik allows a worker to be in a safer position, well away from the trench plate, trench, heavy equipment, and other obstacles. Even more, Safe-T-Stik allows the worker to remain “hands-free” and feel more confident by allowing him to have a better view of the entire work area and sure control of the object being positioned.

Safe-T-Stik is built with an FRP tube and fiberglass rod, both very light and strong and not a very good conductor of electricity.
