Push Pull Tools | Hand Safety Tools
Thorne & Derrick stock and distribute an extensive range of Safety Tools and Push Pull Tools designed to minimise hand or finger injuries by keeping hands out of the line of fire.
Over a quarter of a million people suffer serious hand injuries each year. The Hand Safety Tool Company works hard to help to reverse that trend by creating “No Touch Tools” that keep hands off and away from potential injury areas when carrying out “Push Pull Operations”. The range of Safety Products are the result of numerous conversations and in-field encounters over the last decade with key Health & Safety Officers and “boots-on-the-ground personnel” to ensure each tool produced does the most important job of all – helps every user to keep their hands.

HAND PROTECTION & Tools
Hand Safety Tools | Prevention Of Workplace Hand Injuries
A pinch point is commonly defined as any point where it is possible for a body part to be caught between moving and stationary plant or equipment. Pinch points are found in many places throughout a workplace.
Work tasks such as equipment maintenance, lifting materials, guiding loads, assembly line work and hoisting or hooking up trailers are just a few common tasks where pinch points are a common hazard.
The physical forces applied to the hand caught in a pinch point can vary and cause injuries ranging from bruises, cuts, fractures and scalping to mangled and amputated body parts, and even death.
Safety tools, such as the ShoveIt Hand Safety Tool, substantially reduces hand and finger injuries by avoiding pinch points and other hand related safety issues while working with suspended loads and materials handling on job sites. This mitigation measure, some may say “finger-saver”, safeguards employees by minimising hand and finger injuries – this proactive control measure protects against unnecessary workplace hazards. Gloves can limit severity but not remove risk.
Push Pull Tools
The range of Push Pull Tools manufactured by the Hand Safety Tool Company and distributed by Thorne & Derrick provide significant Health & Safety Improvements around site where “pushing and pulling” operations such as handling deliveries or loading/unloading in yards is commonplace. This download produced by the UK HSE enables the Risk Assessment according to Load Weight, Operation Frequency, Push/Pull Distances and other impacting factors – the range of tools to keep hands off loads, enable “hands-free” lifting, mitigate risk of load handing and prevent hand or finger injury are available in the UK from Thorne & Derrick.
The HookIt helps users to maintain control of an item while keeping hands away from “No-Touch” hazards. It acts as an extension of a worker’s body to move, push or reposition an item, keeping users out of the danger zone while sustaining control of the object. It can also be used as a rigid tagline.
