The Forearm Forklift is a strap that takes the strain off the hands and keeps the weight of the load close to the workers body when lifting and moving heavy or awkward items.
Moving 5 gallon buckets is a necessity in many jobs. Buckets can be heavy and cumbersome to lift and move.
Use of the Bucket Buddy Harness System takes the weight of the bucket off of your hand and balances it on your shoulders. Workers with hand and arm disabilities will find this system very handy. A Farm worker carrying buckets of milk out to calves could benefit greatly from the use of a Bucket Buddy Harness System.
Made with durable, 3 inch (7.62 cm) wide webbing, with a sewn-in padding for your shoulder. A benefit of the strap’s width and padded shoulders is that it comfortably allows you to support the weight of heavy pails (think buckets of paint). Adjustable up to 12 inches (30.5 cm) so that people with different length arms can adjust to their liking. The Bucket Buddy Harness is rated for up to 90 lbs. (40.8 kg) but tested at a much higher break-strength.
