While we were at The World of Concrete we visited many vendors looking for new and exciting products. This one caught our eye and we couldn't wait to share it with you.
Pulling concrete form stakes out of the ground after the pour is a back-breaking job. Often, the stakes seem to have become one with the dirt, rock, and clay and trying to remove them can result in your own personal pain. We have seen workers try to dislodge the stake by hitting them on the side with a hammer. This often bends the stake and the glancing blow can bounce off the stake and hit the worker’s shin bone. Others try to remove the stake with locking pliers and they tear up the stake along with hurting their back due to their poor lifting posture.
The BNFTSP (standard model without the nail puller) and BNFTSPN (with the nail puller feature) are designed to make the removal of form stake both easy and safe. The tool has padded handles plus heat treated gripper rollers that make grabbing the stake quick and easy. They even work well in tight places. Simply place the head of the tool against the stake and lift the handles. The rollers grip the stake and this allows the user to rotate the stake back and forth thus breaking the surface tension around the stake. The stake can then be removed easily from the ground by using your leg muscles rather than straining your back.
The BNFTSP is a great safety tool that will help in the removal of concrete forming stakes. The BNFTSP model comes with a handy belt clip that can be attached to a tool belt.
