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 standard and metric sockets and socket bits housed in light, custom-fitted cases.
