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.

  1. Carry‑Ready Size: Collapses to roughly 16 inches and weighs about a pound: small enough for apron pockets, smocks, or a belt holster.
  2. Instant Extension: Telescopes to approximately 35 inches, allowing workers to pull cartons forward from high shelves while keeping both feet on the floor.
  3. 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.
  4. Dual‑Purpose Tail: The hooked tail lifts pegged merchandise, wire‑hung items, and small parts without climbing or improvising.
  5. Built for Daily Use: Reinforced ABS components and SawTrax manufacturing standards ensure durability in retail, distribution, and service environments.

    For Warehouses & Retail Stores
    In commercial environments, the Pocket Reacher can be a game-changer for efficiency and workplace safety:

    • Stock handling: Pull products forward from the back of deep shelves for facing out or creating a clean “laser-line” display.

    • Order fulfillment: Retrieve items from high or hard-to-reach storage without using ladders, reducing risk of falls.

    • Conveyor belt maintenance: Break jams quickly and safely without reaching into machinery.

    • Strain reduction: Prevent repetitive bending, stretching, or awkward movements that lead to workplace injuries.

    • Compact mobility: Keep it in a holster on your belt or attached to a rolling ladder so it’s always within reach.

    For Residential & Personal Use
    Outside of work, the Pocket Reacher proves just as handy:

    • Home organization: Pull down boxes from high closet or pantry shelves without dragging over a chair or step stool.

    • Decor & maintenance: Helpful for supporting someone while they hang objects such as curtain rods or ceiling fans, and perfect for easily reaching hanging plants that need to be watered. Easily remove or replace string lights and other hanging wires.

    • Vehicle convenience: Reach into the back of a truck bed or deep car trunk without climbing in.

    • Apartment living: Perfect for renters or those without large tool collections—no need for rakes, poles, or ladders to perform basic reach tasks.

    • Unexpected fixes: Pop a folded-in side mirror back into place from the driver’s seat without stopping the car.

    Testimonial

    Good morning, I purchased 4 pocket reacher HD’s for my warehouse a few months back to test out. Our safety team loved the idea, and I am currently working on a presentation for the entire company on why we should implement these throughout our distribution chain….
    We have 290+ distribution locations and I am hoping to get these implemented at every warehouse.
