RAAH Safety Rod Lifter
Introduction
Loading and unloading pipes manually is an inevitable part of workers across several industries. While lifting and maneuvering pipes, hand and wrist injury are a common occurrence, ranging from simple crush bruises to unfortunate hand amputation.
Rod Lifter, exclusive lifting tool for pipes and rods. Engineered with a patented design for loading and unloading pipes and rods. Provides hands-free safety when handling horizontal rolls. It allows safe pick up of sharp, greasy, heated, or unclean piping.Ā
To contribute to theĀ hand safety tools, an innovative design was introduced for artificial pipe and rod lifting, for decreasedĀ hand lifting injuriesĀ and curtailing pinch and crush points.
Keeping aware of theĀ hand pipe injuryĀ and challenges that theĀ Core drillingĀ and piping workers face when handlingĀ tubesĀ and rods, this tool is designed for an easy lift and handling of the pipes, rods, and hollowed and elongatedĀ casingsĀ in a safer manner.
Utility
TheĀ rod handling lifterĀ tools boast a simple yet effective mechanism that replaces the general thumb-hand grip. While muscles and bones are both subjected to crush point and thus failing the grasp, a mechanical replacement is a more reliable alternative inĀ manual pipe lifterĀ tasks; in addition, offeringĀ hands free safetyĀ to the first-line tubing andĀ rod lifterĀ workers. Here are some industries that can benefit fromĀ handheld pipe lifter;
- Chemical Industries
- Automotive Industries
- Offshore and onshore drilling platforms and pumping units
- Land Mining and Drilling Rig
- Process Mills such as Paper Mills
Function
Designed as an unheavy yet resistant material, theĀ lightweight pipe lifterĀ offers an easy handle with an efficient grasp ofĀ contact rods. They are particularly essential on slippery and troublesome surfaces such as thin metal and round veneers. With a quick clutch mechanism, theĀ rod lifterĀ creates not only a buffer zone between hands and pipes,Ā drill pipe lifterĀ also furnishes a more dynamic solution for loading and unloading rods or pipes that are afflicted with extreme temperatures, chemical compounds or the general heavyweight- prone toĀ pipe lifting injuryĀ andĀ rod safetyĀ hazards.
Here are some situations that a rod lifter helps avoiding;
- Failure of lifting and hand grip
- Falling rods and pipe while maneuvering manually
- Prevents thread damage
- Prevents pipe slippage through the use of a specially designed carbide grip
- Knees, hands and feet getting crushed while lifting pipes and rods
Features
Simple, effective and durable are the words associated withĀ pipe lifting tool. While exhibiting an extremely simple mechanism, the toolās convenience and functionality are what make its design exceedingly popular and 100% manufactured in Australia.
- Durable and resistant to heavy weights, extreme temperature.
- Easy application and handling
- Reliable and cost effective
- Easy and effective grip mechanism
Final Thoughts
TheĀ Rod lifterĀ tool is a simple through palpable addition to the tubing crew work kit that permits safe pick up of sharp, slippery, heated or dirty piping without a direct contact. In addition to the safety acquired from exceptional grip, hands and fingers are maintained safely as the pinch points are diminutive to lower percentages when compared to the usualĀ pipe thread lifting damage.
Always assess the work environment for safety measures, and ask yourself questions like; how could I replace a direct touch with a tool and increase the general safety for machinery, efficiency, and human well-being aspects? RAAH Safety has made an effort to respond to these queries by providing the most innovative tools withĀ precision hand toolĀ andĀ hand safety toolsĀ for industrial and home setting safety requirements.
