STUDIES
SHOW THAT USE OF LINK HAND TOOLS CAN LEAD TO
BETTER HEALTH, INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY
Have you
ever thought that using a hand tool to make a repair might be
good for your health ?
The LINK
TOOL® system,
lauded for its ability to increase productivity, its
efficiency and safety features, has just received a second
major certification from TÜV , the international approval
organization. The
second TÜV study confirms that the LINK TOOL system reduces
stress on the skeletal system normally associated with hand
tools.
This means
that anyone who makes a minor repair or who works daily at
repetitive tasks involving the use of hand tools is less
likely to open themselves to physical stress if they use the
LINK tool system.
Professional mechanics who have participated in the
study, as well as those who previously experienced chronic
pain, indicated that they, too, have felt dramatic
relief.
“It stands
to reason that workers who are pain free are able to cope with
more varied jobs,” said John Davidson, President of Link
Tools. “Feedback
from many of the individuals involved in this on-the-job,
independent study report significant improvement in terms of
reducing bodily stress.
No other hand tools can make that statement.” Davidson added.
For
employers the use of the LINK TOOLS
means:
- Reduction
of skeletal and bodily stress which may lead to lower worker
health claims by workers with chronic
pain
- Increased
work speed and productivity
- Less
risk for both workers and equipment
- Increase
of profits due to less down time for workers and
equipment
LINK TOOLS
are the first ‘new’ hand tools introduced to the American
public in the last forty years. What differentiates
them from other tools? With Link’s
Quick-Lock™ Technology, all LINK tools push on and
automatically lock together into a one-piece tool. They also ‘quick
release’ at any connection with one hand, when
desired.
The LINK
TÜV study was conducted for several months drawing on workers
in active, on–the-job
situations. The
study included professional mechanics from the automobile and
airline industries, individuals working with standing
machinery and motorcycle professionals and enthusiasts. TÜV International
Approvals Services is considered Europe’s foremost
certification organization.
LINK TOOLS
product line includes a
1/ 4 inch drive 41 piece system, as well as a 3/8 inch
drive system.
Both systems include a ratchet, a palm wrench, t-bars,
a UniDriver® U-joint, extensions of various length, as well as
