The Red Gum Deluxe Reacher is a lightweight aluminium reaching tool with plastic jaws. The jaws stay open until the trigger is squeezed, the head swivels through 360 degrees so the client can grip an item from any angle, and a magnetic tip and a small hook pick up dropped keys, pins and loops. It comes in three lengths: 600 mm (RGM24), 760 mm (RGM30) and 840 mm (RGM35).
The comfort squeeze handle suits a light grip, and the aluminium shaft keeps the whole tool light enough to hold at arm’s length.
