More departments than ever before are using SURE-GRIP Tool Mounts. Why? Because the dependable, all-weather hook & loop straps provide a greater surface area and a stronger, tighter, and more "true" grip on every tool, no matter the handle shape. Because operation is simple—just release the strap and pull the tool free, quick and easy. And because they’re designed with a smaller overall footprint, potentially allowing more tools in the same space and increasing apparatus carrying capacity. Want to see for yourself? Call 1-800-711-FIRE now to try a pair for 30 days!
