Define the load surface and required movement first. Select tool length only after the control method is clear.

PSC Push Pull Tools for Suspended Load Control
PSC push pull tools transfer guiding, positioning and retrieval functions to a purpose-built interface so workers can influence the load from stand-off distance.

Push Pull Tools Control the Load Without Direct Hand Contact.
A push pull tool moves the control point away from the worker's fingers, hands and feet.
Selection starts with the movement required and the surface being controlled. General suspended loads, tubulars and suitable steel surfaces need different working ends.
Five PSC configurations
Choose Push Pull Tools by Interface, Then by Length.
The working end determines how the tool connects with the load. Reach should then be selected around the operator position and required movement.

Which Load Movements Must Push Pull Tools Control?
This overview identifies the likely product family. Final selection should be confirmed against the load, movement, operator position and site procedure.
| Control need | Likely family | Confirm before selection |
|---|---|---|
| Push, pull or guide a suspended load | PSC LoadGuider® or PSC Guide-It® | Direction of movement, load geometry and required stand-off distance. |
| Match a particular edge, opening or surface | PSC Load-It® | Head profile, engagement point and movement required. |
| Grab and guide pipe or tubular loads | PSC TubularGuider® | Outside geometry, strap engagement and release method. |
| Engage a suitable steel surface magnetically | PSC Load-It® MagHead | Surface condition, engagement orientation and required reach. |
Find The Hand™
Select Push Pull Tools by Finding Where Hands Enter the Task.
If the hand is used to guide, align, steady or position the load, identify that control function before selecting the replacement interface.
Confirm the control point
Show Us How the Load Moves to Select Push Pull Tools.
Send a photograph or short video showing the load geometry, intended movement and operator position. PSC can help identify the appropriate interface and reach.
