LINK® TOOLS OFFER THREE
QUARTER INCH TOOL SETS,
IDEAL FOR HEAVY DUTY
MILITARY MACHINERY, EQUIPMENT
LINK® Tools, which has dramatically
revolutionized the hand tool industry, introduced a new set of
tools specifically designed for heavy duty equipment. The LINK three quarter
inch tools are tailored to make repairs on fixed machinery,
vehicles, merchant marine ships, aircraft landing gears,
buses, trucks, oil patch equipment, building cranes,
earthmoving equipment, bridges, pumps and rolling stock.
What elements of LINK Tools make them ideal
for heavy duty equipment repairs? LINK’s patented
quick-lock®
technology guarantees “no dropped” sockets or tool
separations, and extends this benefit to all standard sockets
by locking them on, as well. This means that all
tools connected stay locked from the mechanic’s hand to the
task at hand, functioning as a one piece tool. When desired, the
tools also quick release at any connection with one hand.
In a presentation to the Department of
Defense (DOD) Maintenance Symposium, Link executives noted
that without Link Tools,
unintended disconnects, for example, traditionally
were a daily occurrence in aviation maintenance. This led to disruption
of service and damage to the aircraft.
A review of Link Tools by the Iowa National
Guard indicated that tanks, a key fighting vehicle in current
military operations, could fall victim to a ‘mission stopper
event’. Thus accidental tool disconnects when a socket or an
extendor falls into equipment or rolls to another location,
can slow or actually terminate a military offensive. LINK Tools
virtually eliminate these persistent
problems.
TÜV, a global leader in independent testing
and assessment services certified that the use of LINK tools
on the job results in significantly increased worker
productivity and significantly reduces chronic stress
injury.
These key features, critically important to three
quarter inch tools and larger, tend to reduce medical problems
and prolong the work life of skilled workers, just as they
result in greater work output and safety for workers and their
machines. These
elements also lead to a healthier and more robust bottom
line.

instance the Link System was strongly recommended. For complete reviews
