Pick Up Tools

What is it?
Pick-up tool is used to collect objects that are out of reach or in inaccessible areas. Most have a magnetic end to pick up magnetic materials, while others have clawed ends to pick up non-magnetic pieces. Most pick-up tools have a strong neodymium magnet on the end which attracts ferromagnetic materials. When aimed at the intended object, the magnet will attract it to the pick-up tool. The object can then be pulled to reach. Larger pick-up tools can also be used to collect a number of objects at a time. This can be useful if you need to pick up a lot of screws or nails off the ground to prevent injury or damage.
What different types are there?
• Telescopic - extendable by telescopic sections. It has a magnet end to pick up magnetic materials
• Bendable pick up tools - The bendable pick-up tool is usually a set length but is flexible to be bent into different positions.
• Clawed pick up tools - The clawed pick-up tool has a clawed end with a spring handle mechanism to open and close the claw, allowing it to pick up non-magnetic materials
• Hinged joint pick up tools - hinge joint pick-up tool has a telescopic shaft with a double ball hinge joint connecting the magnet. This allows the magnet to be rotated 360°.
• Large pick up tools - The large pick-up tool is used to pick up numerous small items at a time from the floor.
