NOW, LONG-HANDLED ALUMINUM TOOLS WON’T SCRATCH OR SINK

Shurhold

 

Oct 17, 2017

 

Boat hooks and brush handles can accidentally scratch and mar fine boat finishes. Shurhold Industries’ patented Handle Mate PFD slips over the aluminum shaft of its Telescoping and Fixed Length Handles to protect gelcoat, paint and chrome. And because those “oops” moments happen, like dropping the tool overboard, the innovative device keeps it floating for easy retrieval.

Made from soft, high-quality neoprene, Handle Mate PFD provides a solid, comfortable grip. The durable sleeve is easily installed and fits Shurhold’s 5′, 6′, and 9′ handles. It comes with a closed cell foam insert for added flotation. 

Handle Mate PFD is part of Shurhold’s One Handle Does It All system. Brushes, mops, brooms, boat hooks, nets, gaffs and other tools snap securely onto a handle. Storing multiple long tools is a thing of the past.
