PRESS RELEASE

MAY 4, 2021

Compton, California.

FallTech® listened and heard the challenges people face in tethering their tools when working at heights safely. What type of anchor should I select if I need to grip anywhere along the tool shaft comfortably, but my tool does not have a captive eye? What are some other options of anchoring tool attachments if I do not want to use tool tape? How do I safely anchor and tether my cordless drill driver? In response to these challenges, plus more, FallTech® announces confusion-free, simple-to-install tool tethering solutions that provide new ways of safely working while enabling those below to be protected from the hazards of dropped objects.
