SawTrax Pocket Reacher
The Pocket Reacher is the compact retrieval tool designed for stockrooms, retail backrooms, parts cribs, and light‑duty warehouse picking. Its telescoping design gives workers controlled reach into overhead positions without climbing, stretching, or improvising. Small enough to carry and strong enough for daily industrial use, it keeps product retrieval safe, efficient, and consistent across every shift.
Workers rely on it because it’s always on hand: collapsing to a portable size, extending instantly, and delivering the same pulling performance as full‑length reach poles. For operations that want to eliminate overhead‑reach injuries and speed up small‑item picking, the Pocket Reacher becomes standard issue.
Ergonomics + Safety
The Pocket Reacher directly addresses the ergonomic risks created by overhead picking, where workers often operate at their weakest shoulder angle, lose balance on tiptoes, and pull cartons down blind. By extending reach without compromising posture, it reduces strain on the rotator cuff and prevents cumulative shoulder injuries.
The tool brings stock forward into a controlled catch zone, eliminating blind drops and reducing the chance of items falling from height. With both feet planted and no need to climb shelving or stand on unstable surfaces, workers maintain balance and avoid the shortcuts that lead to recordable incidents. When paired with a belt holster, the tool becomes point‑of‑use safety equipment—always available, always reducing risk.

How it Works
The Pocket Reacher solves overhead‑reach hazards by giving workers a compact, always‑available retrieval tool that extends their reach without compromising balance or posture.
- Carry‑Ready Size: Collapses to roughly 16 inches and weighs about a pound: small enough for apron pockets, smocks, or a belt holster.
- Instant Extension: Telescopes to approximately 35 inches, allowing workers to pull cartons forward from high shelves while keeping both feet on the floor.
- Controlled Retrieval: The anvil‑style head walks items forward into a safe, two‑hand catch at chest height, reducing shoulder strain and eliminating blind drops.
- Dual‑Purpose Tail: The hooked tail lifts pegged merchandise, wire‑hung items, and small parts without climbing or improvising.
- Built for Daily Use: Reinforced ABS components and SawTrax manufacturing standards ensure durability in retail, distribution, and service environments.
