Tekton announced a new compound angle mini hook, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen this type of tip shape on a hook or pick tool before.
In case it’s not obvious, this is a small “mini pick and hook” sized tool, with 3″ shaft length and 6.6″ overall length with the nylon handle.
Tekton says the compound hook can be used to securely capture and extract objects in hard-to-reach areas, and can be used to retrieve, pull, and push.
Here’s a closeup of the compound hook end, which features a 90° bend and then an additional 180° bend.
This creates a U-shape that looks to allow for easier capturing of o-rings and similar materials.
I’m not convinced that I need one of these, but I’ll keep it in mind. It certainly does look handy, especially for grabbing larger o-rings.
Price: $5
COO: Made in USA
