Magnetic Pick-up Tool: Flexible
Magnetic Pick-up Tool: Flexible

Because its shaft bends, the Magnetic Pick-up Tool: Flexible allows one to pick up small metal items (e.g., nut, bolt, screw, wrench, pliers) from areas otherwise not reachable by hand or even with a telescoping magnetic tool. To prevent the magnet from sticking to other metallic objects during retrieval, most models have a fingertip controller or plunger mechanism whereby the magnet either stays inside the shaft until exposed or is energized (i.e., turned on) when the target item is reached.

Estimated Cost Cost range: $15-$25

Limitations Limitations Addressed by Product: Lower extremity, Upper extremity, Strength/endurance, Back
