For users frequently changing lengths, we have a special coupling designed to reduce changing time to seconds. One customer ordered two additional pole segments (4-ft and 6-ft) and had usability to lengths of 5’, 9’, 11’ and 15’. We fabricate these poles ends to exacting tolerances, allowing complete interchangeability of any length of pole segment. Adding a segment is just reversing this operation at both ends.
Adding or removing modules is simple by design, just remove the two pole joint setscrews and disconnect the internal pull-rod. Limiting your exposures to danger and lawsuits only makes sense. This feature pays big dividends in keeping you out of the danger zone, whether that zone contains nuclear materials, hazardous chemical wastes, explosives or other perilous conditions. 
You can easily add different lengths of pole segments, increasing overall length.
Since one size does not fit all, adding segments to our MODULAR POLES puts you at just the right distance between you and the hazard. Particulates do not readily attach, and you can easily remove liquids and semi-solids. This is also the material of choice for ordinance handling and disposing, reducing dangerous shrapnel.Īn additional benefit of using these smooth-surfaced materials is that cleaning and decontamination is easy. The dielectric fiberglass pole is perfect for use with electrical and other hazards where conduction is a danger. The thick-walled aluminum is slightly heavier than the stainless pole, yet offers robustness capable of holding loads of up to 250 lbs. The stainless steel pole is most popular in radioactive applications where decontamination is required. Our customers have found that certain POLE MATERIALS offer the best advantages for their particular situations. Do you have varied needs for tools requiring different materials? Our poles are made of stainless steel tubing, thick-walled aluminum or even fiberglass. To reposition the handle: twist, slide, and twist again. The quick-slide, adjustable handle serves two purposes: First, to reduce operator fatigue, and second, to facilitate the safe and comfortable manipulation of hazardous materials. Like all LRGT tools, this model has an adjustable side-handle. Operating the LRGT in a variety of orientations still allow the safety latch to be released by either using your thumb or the heel of your hand. To ensure operator safety, the safety latch is only released when your hand is in a safe operating position. 
The grip-force and jaw-opening is adjusted by rotating the knob to gently grasp fragile objects or positively grip heavier ones.
A safety latch integrated into this handle secures the handle closed allowing the operator to confidently transport the hazard to the safe location.
The handle is cushioned, comfortable, and easy to operate. The mechanism is kinematically designed to provide the operator with optimal performance working smarter, not harder – the tool is working for you! Users have tremendous leverage as the handle nears closure with this innovative cam-over center linkage. Next, the padded HANDLE provides a sturdy, yet comfortable fulcrum of control.It is just the right size to easily grasp even with multiple layers of gloves. The knob has a textured surface providing a positive grip. Like a pair of Vise Grip®, this adjustment is made to grasp different sized objects. The rear-most KNOB rotates in conjunction with the eyebolt to adjust the jaws grasping position.In some operations, a tag line can be connected for additional guidance. It is properly sized to support any load the tool can handle. It is a handy tie-off point, which could prevent the operator from inadvertently dropping the tool. Starting at the operator’s end, we have a large fiberglass EYEBOLT.All of our long reach gripper tools are exquisitely engineered, and this particularly robust model is no exception.
