Don’t Drop it, Phat Strop it!

Recommended Posts

Is there anything more frustrating than grabbing for your trusted handsaw only to find it has come loose from the sheath and fallen to the floor?



 

Could you do without wasting time collecting it or worst case have to replace an expensive tool that has been lost or broken on impact?

 

Taking on board all your feedback throughout 2010, we’ve finally developed the first original Phat Strop, which has a universal application with any tool up to a maximum weight of 2.5lb/1.25kg.

So what’s in it for the user?

 

Most importantly, it’s designed to help you prevent dangerous, sharp or heavy tools being dropped from any height that may cause serious injury or property damage.

 

Interestingly, just about every commercial user working with tools from any height or work platform above 2.5 metres now needs a Phat Strop to comply with health & safety general duties of care.

 

So how do I use a Phat Strop?

 

The Phat Strop comes complete with a heavy duty lanyard, carabiner and unique cord loop, which can be thread through the eye of the tool or secured firmly around the tool handle. The lanyard extends from 1-1.4 metres so you can conveniently reach branches yet it also recoils close to the sheath meaning you avoid getting caught whilst climbing.

 

Want to meet us?

 

We are demonstrating at all the up-and-coming trade shows, including Capel Manor, Arb Fair North and The AA Show giving you the opportunity to find out which Cutting-Edge handsaw best suits you in our Finest Cut Competition. Plus you can experience the reach capability of our telescopic polesaws and get your hands on our latest performance clothing available as part of your CEuk Tree Management Professional Kit.

 

 

Ask your local supplier about CEuk products next time you visit or check out our website

Carabiner not to be used for climbing. Not for use with a chainsaw. Avoid using the Phat Strop™ at maximum lanyard extension.

Hey guys,

 

Lop Top... What colours your kit? :001_smile:

 

Rob... glad you have had the problem, we just give you the option with a simple devise, just be careful of the throwline weight capabilities... I heard of someone who used a retractable cat lead... it almost slashed through his chest! :-s

 

The Phat Strop is designed more for handsaws, secatuers and small tools (not chainsaws) which the Stein is for.... One thing that is unique is the cord loop on the Phat Strop can be thread through the eye of the handsaw handle whereas the orange bungee has only a loop.

 

Thanks for the feedback, keep it all rolling.

 

Much love,

haven't had a chance to look at one of these close up and i think its a good idea that someone has thought of. Chris will you be at the Three counties show? So i can have a closer look. I won't be at Woodfest this year so you'll have to make sure Alex and Paul (Oregon shop) have a lovely hangover.
