Durable Grips

Firefighter Ben Singer from Catonsville (MD) Fire Station 4 sent in these images of a spiral weld grip on their hooks. The grip he made is a metal spiral welded grip that replaces traditional ways to wrap tools like oxygen tubing and medical tape. This grip becomes more permanent and needs little to no maintenance.

Each of their Engine Companies have three hooks mounted inside the cab, next to the jump-seat. One long and one short on the officer side and the third hook mounted on the driver side. Great creation on a long lasting, clean grip!
