Product Description: Above All Co. The Forearm Forklift moving straps were designed in 1997 by a professional mover who is still very active in the industry. After many years "on the truck" he felt compelled to invent a tool that actually eliminated the risk of floor damage. A claim that only the Forearm Forklift can make since the dolly and hand truck require the rolling of wheels on your sensitive floors. Coincidentally, he also designed them ergonomically to encourage proper lifting techniques and body mechanics. They are actually the first and only OSHA accepted moving tool ever to reduce potential injuries due to heavy and repetitive lifting.
Benefits: Reduces weight of item being carried by 66% Creates handles on any hard-to-handle pieces Great for going up and down most stairs or truck ramps Tight turning radius (excellent for 90 degree turns in hallways and switchbacks in staircases) Will never scratch wood floors, break tile, stain carpets or rip vinyl (linoleum)
The Forearm Forklift was awarded "Best New Product of the Year 1999" by the Industrial Equipment News whose constituents are solely top professionals in the business.

These helped out tremendously when we moved. We moved mattresses, box frames, entertainment center, the refrigerator, and a very heavy treadmill. It helps since you can maneuver around with them while they "float." ... Read More
