Not every load handling challenge fits a standard tool. When it doesn't, Amick builds one.

The custom no-touch tool process starts with a simple description or sketch of the problem β€” the load, the engagement point, and what the tool needs to do. From there, Amick's team designs and fabricates a solution in-house at the Pittsburgh facility, to the same quality standards as every tool in the standard lineup. Custom is always an option!

Not every load control situation calls for a rigid tool. Sometimes you just need a safe grip point to pull and guide a suspended load where it needs to go. πŸ”—

Tag lines and sleeves do exactly that. Both wrap around chain slings or web slings with a VELCRO closure β€” giving workers a secure, hands-free grip to walk a load along a path without direct contact. Tag lines offer flat, flexible webbing with optional internal reinforcement. Sleeves are cylindrical and fully encircle the sling, with an optional carabiner version for added backup security.

Both manufactured in-house by Amick. Available in multiple configurations.

Available in steel and aluminum, fixed and removable head configurations, in multiple lengths.

Available in steel and aluminum, fixed and removable head configurations, in multiple lengths.

Not every rigging job calls for pushing against the load itself. Sometimes the work is in the rigging. πŸ”—

The C Head is built for exactly that β€” wire rope, chain, synthetic slings, shackles, and more. Its open C-shaped profile lets workers push, pull, and reposition rigging components without putting hands anywhere near a tensioned sling or shifting hardware.

Available in steel and aluminum, fixed and removable head configurations, in multiple lengths. The right tool for when the hazard is in the rigging, not just the load.
